Glycol methacrylate embedding of renal biopsy specimens for light microscopy.
Thirty-five consecutive renal biopsy specimens were evaluated by light histology using paraffin and glycol methacrylate embedding. The clarity of the renal structures was found to be much better, and the renal lesions better defined, using glycol methyacrylate embedding.
