What Are the Steps of Fixation?

Fixation is a multi-step process that includes:
Immersion or perfusion of the tissue with a fixative.
Penetration of the fixative into the tissue, ensuring uniform fixation.
Cross-linking of proteins to stabilize cellular structures.
Rinsing to remove excess fixative and prevent over-fixation.
