PPT-Fixation and Fixative

Prepared by Reem Aldossari THE GENERAL VISCRA OF THE RAT Definition of Fixation In the fields of histology pathology and cell biology fixation is a chemical process by which . FIXATION AND PERMEABILIZATION IN IHC/ICC FIXATION: Fixation should immobilize antigens while retaining cellular and subcellular structure. It should also allow for access of antibodies to all cells a The main purpose of fixation is: 1) to cross-link cellular structures into a matrix so as to preserve the structure of the cells with the minimum of alteration from the living state (i.e. with no ch Processing in Autism.
