Bleaching melanin in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded melanoma specimens using visible light: a pilot study

In fluorescence microscopy, light radiation can be used to bleach fluorescent molecules in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, in order to increase the ratio between signal of interest and background autofluorescence. We tested if the same principle can be exploited in bright field...
