BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE PROCESSING COMPOSITION AND METHOD

摘要

A method and composition are disclosed that are useful for processing
biological samples. In one aspect, a biological sample such as a tissue
section is treated using a histochemical technique and is contacted with a
lipid compound during the process to enhance the definition of cellular and
sub-cellular features that are observable in the sample when it is viewed
microscopically. In other aspects, a coverslipping composition that includes a
lipid compound and a method of coverslipping a sample using the coverslipping
composition are disclosed.
