What Histological Techniques are Used to Study Toxin Exposure?
Staining Techniques: Special stains like Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) are used to visualize cellular and tissue structures affected by toxins. Immunohistochemistry: This technique uses antibodies to detect specific proteins that may be upregulated or downregulated in response to toxins. Electron Microscopy: Provides detailed images of cellular ultrastructure to observe minute changes caused by toxins.
