Proper fluid management is crucial for several reasons:
Preservation: Fluids like fixatives are essential for preserving tissue morphology and preventing degradation. Staining: Using the correct staining solutions enhances contrast, allowing for better visualization under a microscope. Clearing: Fluids such as xylene are used to clear tissue samples, making them transparent and suitable for embedding in paraffin. Hydration: Proper hydration and dehydration steps are necessary to maintain tissue integrity and quality.
