Article Synopsis
- - Ex vivo fluorescence laser scanning microscopy (FCM) enables real-time imaging of fresh tissue samples without traditional slide preparation, and this study specifically investigates its application in evaluating biopsy samples from endoscopic procedures for lung lesions and lymph nodes.
- - The study involved 32 patients, showing that the FCM Vivascope 2500 could accurately assess sample adequacy and malignancy, with a perfect agreement noted between its evaluations and final histological results.
- - The findings suggest that FCM could significantly improve the speed of diagnostic information during endoscopic biopsies, potentially enhancing patient management by reducing the time needed to diagnose lung cancer.
Article Synopsis
- Recent advancements in technology aim to standardize pathology lab processes, especially in automating tissue paraffin embedding, which enhances sample preservation.
- The study tested a new polymer matrix to facilitate automatic paraffin embedding for cytological specimens, which previously lacked suitable tools.
- Results showed that this automated process effectively prepares and preserves cytological samples without manual handling, improving laboratory efficiency and patient diagnosis.
The present study has been aimed at evaluating the effects of the dietary inclusion of the live yeasts, var. (LSB) administered at increasing concentrations (0, 100, and 300 mg kg of feed, here referred to as LSB 0, 100, 300) for 90 days, on the health conditions of European sea bass. The main zootechnical parameters, histological and morphological analyses, innate immunity response parameters (intestinal cytokine expression, lysozyme content, spontaneous hemolytic and hemagglutinating activities, antibacterial activities, and peroxidase activity) were measured as fish welfare parameters.

The effect of HIM dietary inclusion on fish growth performance, stress indicators and gut histology was studied. For 131 days, 312 fish were fed a basal diet containing fishmeal as animal protein source, and three diets containing 25%, 35% and 50% HIM as a partial replacement for fishmeal.
