What are Common Labels Used in Histology?

Several common labels are frequently used in histological studies:
1. Nucleus: Typically stained with hematoxylin, which turns it blue.
2. Cytoplasm: Often stained with eosin, which gives it a pink hue.
3. Cell Membrane: May be labeled using specific antibodies in immunohistochemistry.
4. Connective Tissue: Stained with special dyes like Masson's trichrome.
5. Muscle Tissue: Identified using specific stains like phosphotungstic acid hematoxylin (PTAH).
6. Nervous Tissue: Stained with silver stains or Nissl stains for detailed observation.
