What are the Challenges of Sedimentation in Histology?
While sedimentation is a valuable tool, it also poses some challenges:
Cell Damage: The forces involved in centrifugal sedimentation can sometimes damage delicate cells, affecting the quality of the sample. Incomplete Separation: Not all particles may settle at the same rate, leading to incomplete separation and potential contamination of the sample. Time-Consuming: Natural sedimentation can be slow, requiring extended periods for particles to settle adequately.
