\n
10% Neutral buffered formalin (NBF) is the most commonly used fixative throughout the world for light microscopy and is a somewhat forgiving fixative.\u00a010% NBF is well suited for large throughput laboratories, and requires a relatively short period of fixation, but can also be used for the long-term storage of tissue. Formalin fixation is thought to form between the aldehydes and the proteins, creating a gel, thus retaining cellular constituents in their\u00a0in vivo<\/i>\u00a0relationship.\u00a0Once properly fixed, the tissue should be able to withstand the subsequent stages of tissue processing or staining.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Application<\/h3>\n
Formalin solution, neutral buffered, 10% has been used as a popular general purpose histological fixative to fix tissues.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Formalin solution, neutral buffered, 10% has been used in oil-red-o staining for the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cell line and mouse embryonic fibroblasts into adipocytes.\u00a0It has been used in the histological analysis of rabbit\u2032s eye and diabetic rat intestine.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
