  2. Golgi's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi's_method

    Golgi's method is a silver staining technique that is used to visualize nervous tissue under light microscopy. The method was discovered by Camillo Golgi , an Italian physician and scientist , who published the first picture made with the technique in 1873. [ 1 ]

  3. Golgi apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus

    Centrosome. Cell membrane. The Golgi apparatus (/ ˈɡɒldʒi /), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. [1] Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.

  4. Silver staining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_staining

    In pathology, silver staining is the use of silver to selectively alter the appearance of a target in microscopy of histological sections; in temperature gradient gel electrophoresis; and in polyacrylamide gels. In traditional stained glass, silver stain is a technique to produce yellow to orange or brown shades (or green on a blue glass base ...

  5. Vesicle (biology and chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesicle_(biology_and...

    Vesicle (biology and chemistry) Scheme of a liposome formed by phospholipids in an aqueous solution. In cell biology, a vesicle is a structure within or outside a cell, consisting of liquid or cytoplasm enclosed by a lipid bilayer. Vesicles form naturally during the processes of secretion (exocytosis), uptake (endocytosis), and the transport of ...

  6. Cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_wall

    A cell wall is a structural layer that surrounds some cell types, found immediately outside the cell membrane. It can be tough, flexible, and sometimes rigid. Primarily, it provides the cell with structural support, shape, protection, and functions as a selective barrier. [ 1 ]

  7. Cisterna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisterna

    Proteins begin on the cis side of the Golgi (the side facing the ER) and exit on the trans side (the side facing the plasma membrane). [2] Throughout their journey in the cisterna, the proteins are packaged and are modified for transport throughout the cell. [2] The number of cisterna in the Golgi stack is dependent on the organism and cell ...

  9. Staining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staining

    Staining is a technique used to enhance contrast in samples, generally at the microscopic level. Stains and dyes are frequently used in histology (microscopic study of biological tissues), in cytology (microscopic study of cells), and in the medical fields of histopathology, hematology, and cytopathology that focus on the study and diagnoses of ...
