2. Liquid-based cytology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-based_cytology

   Brushes used to collect samples for cytology. Liquid-based cytology is a method of preparing samples for examination in cytopathology.The sample is collected, normally by a small brush, in the same way as for a conventional smear test, but rather than the smear being transferred directly to a microscope slide, the sample is deposited into a small bottle of preservative liquid.

3. Maropitant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maropitant

   Maropitant (INN; [3] brand name: Cerenia, used as maropitant citrate , is a neurokinin-1 (NK 1) receptor antagonist developed by Zoetis specifically for the treatment of motion sickness and vomiting in dogs. It was approved by the FDA in 2007, for use in dogs [4] [5] and in 2012, for cats. [6]

4. Papanicolaou stain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papanicolaou_stain

   The third staining solution is composed of three dyes, Eosin Y, Light Green SF yellowish, and Bismarck brown Y in 95% ethyl alcohol with a small amount of phosphotungstic acid and lithium carbonate. [ 12 ] [ 2 ] This solution, designated EA, followed by a number that denotes the proportion of the dyes, other formulations include EA-36, EA-50 ...

5. Giemsa stain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giemsa_stain

   Giemsa's solution is a mixture of methylene blue, eosin, and Azure B. The stain is usually prepared from commercially available Giemsa powder. A thin film of the specimen on a microscope slide is fixed in pure methanol for 30 seconds, by immersing it or by putting a few drops of methanol on the slide. The slide is immersed in a freshly prepared ...

6. Zenker's fixative - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zenker's_fixative

   Zenker's fixative is a rapid-acting fixative for animal tissues. It is employed to prepare specimens of animal or vegetable tissues for microscopic study. It provides excellent fixation of nuclear chromatin, connective tissue fibers and some cytoplasmic features, but does not preserve delicate cytoplasmic organelles such as mitochondria.

7. Fine-needle aspiration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine-needle_aspiration

   Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is a diagnostic procedure used to investigate lumps or masses.In this technique, a thin (23–25 gauge (0.52 to 0.64 mm outer diameter)), hollow needle is inserted into the mass for sampling of cells that, after being stained, are examined under a microscope ().

8. Liquid biopsy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_biopsy

   A liquid biopsy, also known as fluid biopsy or fluid phase biopsy, is the sampling and analysis of non-solid biological tissue, primarily blood. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Like traditional biopsy , this type of technique is mainly used as a diagnostic and monitoring tool for diseases such as cancer , with the added benefit of being largely non-invasive.

9. Antigen retrieval - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigen_retrieval

   The chemical composition and pH value of the buffer solution also contribute to the effectiveness of heat-induced antigen retrieval. [1] Thus, the AR-immunohistochemistry protocol must be optimized for each tissue type, fixation method, and antigen using a "test battery" to maximize antigen recovery in formalin fixed paraffin embedded sections.
