Acetic acid

Acetic acid, systematically named ethanoic acid, is an acidic, colourless liquid and organic compound with the chemical formula (also written as,, or). Vinegar is at least 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water.

See Bouin solution and Acetic acid

American Society for Clinical Pathology

The American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP), formerly known as the American Society of Clinical Pathologists is a professional association based in Chicago, Illinois encompassing 130,000 pathologists and laboratory professionals.

See Bouin solution and American Society for Clinical Pathology

Carbohydrate

A carbohydrate is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water) and thus with the empirical formula (where m may or may not be different from n), which does not mean the H has covalent bonds with O (for example with, H has a covalent bond with C but not with O).

See Bouin solution and Carbohydrate

Cell nucleus

The cell nucleus (nuclei) is a membrane-bound organelle found in eukaryotic cells.

See Bouin solution and Cell nucleus

Copper(II) acetate

Copper(II) acetate, also referred to as cupric acetate, is the chemical compound with the formula Cu(OAc)2 where AcO− is acetate.

See Bouin solution and Copper(II) acetate

Electron microscope

An electron microscope is a microscope that uses a beam of electrons as a source of illumination. Bouin solution and electron microscope are pathology.

See Bouin solution and Electron microscope

Endocrine system

The endocrine system is a messenger system in an organism comprising feedback loops of hormones that are released by internal glands directly into the circulatory system and that target and regulate distant organs.

See Bouin solution and Endocrine system

Eosinophil

Eosinophils, sometimes called eosinophiles or, less commonly, acidophils, are a variety of white blood cells and one of the immune system components responsible for combating multicellular parasites and certain infections in vertebrates. Along with mast cells and basophils, they also control mechanisms associated with allergy and asthma.

Fixation (histology)

In the fields of histology, pathology, and cell biology, fixation is the preservation of biological tissues from decay due to autolysis or putrefaction. Bouin solution and fixation (histology) are histology and pathology.

See Bouin solution and Fixation (histology)

Formaldehyde

Formaldehyde (systematic name methanal) is an organic compound with the chemical formula and structure, more precisely.

See Bouin solution and Formaldehyde

Formic acid

Formic acid, systematically named methanoic acid, is the simplest carboxylic acid, and has the chemical formula HCOOH and structure.

See Bouin solution and Formic acid

Gastrointestinal tract

The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract, digestive tract, alimentary canal) is the tract or passageway of the digestive system that leads from the mouth to the anus. The GI tract contains all the major organs of the digestive system, in humans and other animals, including the esophagus, stomach, and intestines.

See Bouin solution and Gastrointestinal tract

Glycogen

Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose that serves as a form of energy storage in animals, fungi, and bacteria.

See Bouin solution and Glycogen

Granule (cell biology)

In cell biology, a granule is a small particle barely visible by light microscopy.

See Bouin solution and Granule (cell biology)

H&E stain

Hematoxylin and eosin stain (or haematoxylin and eosin stain or hematoxylin-eosin stain; often abbreviated as H&E stain or HE stain) is one of the principal tissue stains used in histology.

See Bouin solution and H&E stain

Histology

Histology, also known as microscopic anatomy or microanatomy, is the branch of biology that studies the microscopic anatomy of biological tissues.

See Bouin solution and Histology

Lysis

Lysis is the breaking down of the membrane of a cell, often by viral, enzymic, or osmotic (that is, "lytic") mechanisms that compromise its integrity.

See Bouin solution and Lysis

Picric acid

Picric acid is an organic compound with the formula (O2N)3C6H2OH.

See Bouin solution and Picric acid

Pol Bouin

Pol André Bouin (11 June 1870 – 5 February 1962) was a French histologist and reproductive endocrinologist.

See Bouin solution and Pol Bouin

Red blood cell

Red blood cells (RBCs), referred to as erythrocytes (with -cyte translated as 'cell' in modern usage) in academia and medical publishing, also known as red cells, erythroid cells, and rarely haematids, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.

See Bouin solution and Red blood cell

Staining

Staining is a technique used to enhance contrast in samples, generally at the microscopic level. Bouin solution and Staining are histology.

See Bouin solution and Staining

Trichrome staining

Trichrome staining is a histological staining method that uses two or more acid dyes in conjunction with a polyacid. Bouin solution and Trichrome staining are histology.

See Bouin solution and Trichrome staining

Ultrastructure

Ultrastructure (or ultra-structure) is the architecture of cells and biomaterials that is visible at higher magnifications than found on a standard optical light microscope.

See Bouin solution and Ultrastructure
