Cells under a microscope

Histology Core Facility

The Histology Core Facility provides NYITCOM researchers with services, including sectioning, embedding and staining of biological samples, that enable the study of biological samples at the microscopic level. The facility contributes to studies ranging from analysis of the diets of dinosaurs to the examination of the expression and function of proteins in normal and disease tissues and cells. Student access is limited to students participating in related faculty-led research projects.

Our equipment includes:

  • Microtomes (including a cryomicrotome)
  • Embedding stations
  • Histology/staining station
