Tissue staining

Tissue staining is a laboratory technique used to highlight specific structures or cell types within a tissue sample. By applying special dyes or chemicals, certain components such as proteins, cells, or fibers absorb these stains, making them more visible under a microscope. This process helps pathologists and researchers identify changes, abnormalities, or disease-related features within tissues, aiding in diagnosis and scientific study. Different stains target different tissue elements, enhancing contrast and detail, which is essential for accurate analysis and understanding of biological tissues.
