DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-12006-1
Abstract: Advances in imaging have made it increasingly common to study soft tissues without first embedding them in plastic or paraffin and without using labels or stains. The process, however, usually still involves fixation and cryosectioning,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0284185121994047
Abstract: BACKGROUND Generally, studies of gadolinium (Gd) deposition in humans measure concentration by analyzing formalin fixed postmortem tissue. However, the effect of formalin fixation on measured Gd concentration has not been well investigated. PURPOSE To evaluate… read more here.

DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v7.i4.419
Abstract: BACKGROUND The needs for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) and/or programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) evaluations in gastric cancer are dramatically increasing. Although the importance of standardization of sample fixation has been widely recognized,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.00173
Abstract: Formalin fixation and paraffin embedding (FFPE) represent the standard method to preserve tissue specimens for diagnostic pathology, however formalin fixation induces severe fragmentation of nucleic acids. We investigated whether formalin fixation at 4°C could preserve… read more here.
