What are the Histological Techniques Used in Biomaterial Research?
Several histological techniques are employed to study biomaterials, including:
Light Microscopy: Allows for the examination of tissue sections stained with specific dyes to highlight various components. Electron Microscopy: Provides high-resolution images of the interaction between cells and biomaterials. Immunohistochemistry: Uses antibodies to detect specific proteins, enabling the study of cellular responses. Histomorphometry: Quantitative analysis of tissue structure and composition.
