Abstract
Microwave irradiation provides good fixation of human and animal tissu es for light and electron microscopy. In this study, microwave irradia tion was used for the fixation of cytoplasmic and nuclear matrix in tu mor cells. The nuclear matrix appeals well preserved and exhibits a ne twork formed by thick and thin filaments. Hence microwave fixation can be used as a quick and effective method for the study of the morpholo gy of nuclear matrix.
