decalcification

Decalcification.--Certain specimen types that commonly contain bone receive a code of 88311 for decalcification at the time of accessioning.

(2) 10 ml of Jenkin's fluid (Culling 1957), the decalcification solution, was added to the Petri dish, covered with glass lid and left for decalcification for 18 hours.

However, numerous factors such as decalcification of enamel, facial profile, root resorption, and treatment stability are not assessed through PAR index.

Bone decalcification was performed using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), whereas specimen fixation was done using formalin (10%).

In particular, for this patient with bone-only metastases, decalcification of bone tumor tissue presented challenges to immunohistochemical staining, which can be common and may lead to inconclusive or false negative ER, PR, or HER2 results

There are two layers of decalcification in carious dentin.

The fixed orthodontic appliances have long been associated with an increase in plaque accumulation, bacterial colonization, and resultant enamel decalcification (1-3).

Bone biopsy samples harvested from the lesioned area were initially fixed in 10% formalin solution for 36 hours and then kept in a 5% nitric acid solution for 48 hours for decalcification. After routine tissue processing protocols, the specimens were embedded in paraffin, cut to a thickness of 4-5 [micro]m and stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin.

It was fixed in 10% neutral formalin, subjected to decalcification in formic acid, bisected in a mesiodistal direction, and then processed for light microscopic examination.

Decalcification was performed for cochleae of P7 and later for 24 hours.

As these are completely removable and making it easier for one to brush and floss normally, it thereby massively reduces the potential problems that can be caused due to decalcification. With each Invisalign aligner used, the pace of the treatment can be controlled.

However, some studies showed that these treatment methods might leading to tumor decalcification, thus increasing retinal damage.
