Histology
The Cellular Imaging and Histology Core provides researchers access to high quality histological preparation of experimental research tissue specimens. The core provides an array of histology services including: frozen and paraffin embedded tissue processing, sectioning, routine and special staining, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescent labeling. The Cellular Imaging and Histology Core also provides access to Histological Instrumentation, such as microtomes, cryostats, an automated slide stainer and a robotic coverslipper.
