Small and hard seeds: a practical and inexpensive method to improve embedding techniques for light microscopy

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2014
The traditional techniques employed for embedding plant samples are not suitable for the proper processing of small seeds with hard seed coats. Usually, these seeds are broken off from blocks during microtomy, which limits the technical success of this ...

Development and initial testing of a virtual simulation training module to teach microtomy

open access: yes, 2022
Background: Microtomy is a procedure that medical laboratory technologists (MLTs) use to cut tissue samples. The aim of this thesis is to use the think-aloud protocol to develop a virtual simulation training module for students to learn microtomy ...

Construção de um micrótomo de congelamento a partir da adaptação de um micrótomo de parafina

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 1998
A microtome for frozen sections was developed using the facilities and equipment available in our country. The requirements for making it were: 1) fast frozen of the tissue, 2) easy histological procedure, 3) no necessity of long period for preparation ...

Transmission electron microscopy characterisation of Spirulina bioplastics

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Plastic pollution is impacting global ecosystem health. Bioplastics made from unprocessed biomass, including whole or fragmented tissues, are one potential solution. They are biodegradable and exhibit competitive mechanical performance. Seaweed and microalgae have gained popularity over the last decade as bioplastic feedstocks due to their ...

Methylmercury intoxication and histochemical demonstration of NADPH-diaphorase activity in the striate cortex of adult cats

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
The effects of methylmercury (MeHg) on histochemical demonstration of the NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d) activity in the striate cortex were studied in 4 adult cats. Two animals were used as control.

The L108I polymorphism in mouse prion protein drives spontaneous disease and enhances transmission of atypical and classical prion strains

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
A single amino acid change (L108I) combined with PrP overexpression drives spontaneous atypical prion formation in mice, enabling also efficient propagation of diverse prion strains. This model allows studying how spontaneous prion diseases arise and provides powerful tools for investigating strain emergence, transmission barriers, and mechanisms ...
