Rocking platforms enhance the quality and consistency of histological procedures. Their primary benefits include:
1. Uniform Staining: By keeping reagents in motion, rocking platforms ensure that every part of the tissue section is equally exposed to the staining solution, resulting in consistent and reproducible staining. 2. Improved Washing: During the washing steps, these platforms help remove excess stains or reagents more effectively, reducing background staining and enhancing the clarity of the final preparation. 3. Enhanced Incubation: Rocking platforms facilitate better penetration of enzymes or antibodies during incubation steps, improving the efficiency of processes like immunohistochemistry.
