Histologists use various staining techniques to identify and study organic matter within tissues. For instance, Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining is widely used to differentiate between different tissue components. Specific stains like Masson's trichrome can highlight collagen fibers, while Oil Red O staining is used to detect lipids. Advanced techniques such as immunohistochemistry and fluorescence microscopy enable the precise localization of proteins and other organic molecules within tissues.
