How are Liver Samples Prepared for Histology?

The preparation of liver samples for histological analysis involves several steps:
1. Fixation: The tissue is preserved using a fixative like formalin.
2. Embedding: The fixed tissue is embedded in paraffin wax to provide support during sectioning.
3. Sectioning: Thin sections of the tissue are cut using a microtome.
4. Staining: The sections are stained using appropriate histological stains to highlight different structures.
5. Mounting: The stained sections are mounted on glass slides for microscopic examination.
