Porcine intestinal mast cells. Evaluation of different fixatives for histochemical staining techniques considering tissue shrinkage
Staining of mast cells (MCs), including porcine ones, is critically dependent upon the fixation and staining technique. In the pig, mucosal and submucosal MCs do not stain or stain only faintly after formalin fixation. Some fixation methods are particularly recommended for MC staining, for example t...
