  2. Fibrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrin

    Fibrin (also called Factor Ia) is a fibrous, non-globular protein involved in the clotting of blood. It is formed by the action of the protease thrombin on fibrinogen , which causes it to polymerize .

  3. Fibrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrosis

    Fibrosis, also known as fibrotic scarring, is a pathological wound healing in which connective tissue replaces normal parenchymal tissue to the extent that it goes unchecked, leading to considerable tissue remodelling and the formation of permanent scar tissue.

  4. Trichrome staining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichrome_staining

    In "one-step" methods, all the dyes—with or without a polyacid—are combined in a single solution. One of the oldest single-step approaches to trichrome staining is van Gieson's method, which stains muscle and cytoplasm yellow, and collagen red. Another is the Gömöri trichrome stain, which closely mimics Masson's trichrome. In "yellowsolve ...

  5. Fibrinoid necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrinoid_necrosis

    Fibrinoid necrosis is a pathological lesion that affects blood vessels, and is characterized by the occurrence of endothelial damage, followed by leakage of plasma proteins, including fibrinogen, from the vessel lumen; these proteins infiltrate and deposit within the vessel walls, where fibrin polymerization subsequently ensues.

  6. Fibrin glue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrin_glue

    Fibrin glue (also called fibrin sealant) is a surgical formulation used to create a fibrin clot for hemostasis, cartilage repair surgeries or wound healing. It contains separately packaged human fibrinogen and human thrombin .

  7. Phosphotungstic acid-haematoxylin stain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphotungstic_acid...

    It is used to show gliosis in the central nervous system, tumours of skeletal muscles, and fibrin deposits in lesions. Muscle is stained blue-black to dark brown, connective tissue is pale orange-pink to brownish red, fibrin and neuroglia stain deep blue, coarse elastic fibers show as purple, and bone and cartilage obtain yellowish to brownish ...

  8. Platelet-rich fibrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platelet-rich_fibrin

    Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) or leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) is a derivative of PRP where autologous platelets and leukocytes are present in a complex fibrin matrix [1] [2] to accelerate the healing of soft and hard tissue [3] and is used as a tissue-engineering scaffold in oral and maxillofacial surgeries.

  9. Blood smear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_smear

    Blood smears showing various developmental stages of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, stained with Wright stain and Giemsa stain. The preferred and most reliable diagnosis of malaria is microscopic examination of blood smears, because each of the four major parasite species has distinguishing characteristics.
