To study the pellicle in histology, various techniques are employed, including:
Microscopy: Light microscopy and electron microscopy are commonly used to visualize pellicles and study their structure and composition. Staining: Specific stains can highlight the components of the pellicle, making them more visible under the microscope. Molecular Techniques: Methods such as immunohistochemistry and fluorescence microscopy can be used to identify specific molecules within the pellicle.
