Histology and Histopathology Techniques

Histotechnology and Microscopy

• Orcein is used to demonstrate "finest" and "delicate" fibers.
• Unbuffered formalin can lead to the formation of formic acid, brown pigment granules in blood-containing organs, and reduce quality.
• Stroping is a process used to remove the "burr" from a knife.
• Freeze-substitution involves quenching and replacement of water with paraffin.
• Embedding is a process in which a specimen is placed in a medium to ensure stability before being placed in a block in a microtome.

Special Stains

• Reticulum is visible when stained with Gomori silver stain.
• Toluidine blue is the recommended stain for nissl granules.
• Paraffin does not solidify uniformly, and it generally caves in at the top of the mold.

Autopsy and Histopathology

• Straight incision is used in autopsy procedures for children and infants.
• Canada balsam is a permanent mounting media.
• Simple columnar is not matched correctly with the urethra.
• Microscopic examination of tissues is not performed by a Medtech.

Laboratory Techniques

• Freeze-drying techniques involve quenching and desiccation.
• Cadmium or cobalt salt is added to prevent fat in formalin.
• Anhydrous copper sulfate is used to complete dehydration.
• Acetone is used to fix tissues for rabies diagnosis.

Cellular Biology

• Irritability is the ability of cells to respond to stimuli.
• Parabasal cells have a fried egg appearance like a sunny side up.
• Rhabdomyoma is a benign tumor of striated muscle.
• Wharton's jelly is a type of connective tissue.
• Lesion refers to a structural change brought about by disease.

Microbiology

• Gram-negative cells appear red after gram staining.
• Shock occurs when there is insufficient oxygen supply to tissues.
• Apoptosis is a type of programmed cell death.

Miscellaneous

• The correct order of signing autopsy is spouse, child, father, and mother.
• Paraffin wax is the best impregnating and embedding media.
• Atresia is a congenital anomaly where there is a closure of the external auditory canal.
• Apoptosis is a type of programmed cell death.
• Toxic dehydrating agents are used in red blood cells.
• Hypertrophy is a type of cellular adaptive change.
• Supravital staining is used to stain living cells immediately after removal from the living body.
• PAS stain is used to demonstrate fibrin.

Laboratory Safety and Quality Control

• EQAP is an interlab quality assurance program.
• Categorical based hospital compatibility testing is hospital-based category A.
• HIV window period is 1-4 weeks, and it shows negative results when tested but can still infect.
• RA 9165 is the Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
• The penalty for not throwing away expired blood within 24 hours is 10 years imprisonment.
• Newborn Screening Act is exempt from testing if it is against the parent's religious beliefs.
• PAMET is an acronym for the hymn "In fields of advancement and learning".

Research and Statistics

• Flexible budgeting is a type of operational budgeting where the budget is based on a variable workload.
• Semantics is the study of the denotation and connotation of words and messages.
• Customer relationship is the most significant action to take to decrease the chance of getting sued.
• A theoretical framework explains why the problem under investigation exists and its connection to certain factors.
• Endogenous refers to the dependent variable.
• Mixed research involves emerging of questions and procedures, collecting in participants' settings.
