Specialized Tissue Laboratory Analyses PDF Print E-mail
Plasma ChamberWe perform routine histochemical tissue processing and staining including tissue embedding in paraffin, tissue processing for hematoxylin and eosin stains, and tissue processing for specialized histochemical stains including osmium tetra-oxide stain for fat and silver impregnation stains. We perform specialized immuno-histochemical tissue staining including viral tissue identification using antibodies and amyloid precursor protein immunostaining for the diagnosis of diffuse traumatic axonal injury. We also co-ordinate other highly specialized tissue testing and analyses with our affiliates including immuno-fluorescent con-focal tissue microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, radio-ligand binding tissue immuno-assay. Other evidence based tissue or fluid analysis may be performed upon request including DNA identification and paternity testing analyses.
