Rates of penetration of fixing fluids

Abstract

Measurements of the rate of penetration of fixing fluids obviously provide an empirical basis for the minimum timing of tissue fixation, and pioneer studies to this end have appeared in a European literature: Tellyesniczky ('lo, '26), Underhill B. Formal-sublimate (Heidenhain) C. Formal-bichromate (Orth, Regaud) D. Formal-chmm 1. Formal-trichloracetic and sublimate (Romeis) 1. Formal-sublimate and bichromate (Zenker formal, Helly, Maximow, Bensley)1. Formal&rom and osmium (Kauffmann)
