An effect of low temperatures on the morphological picture of the rabbit tongue mucosa. Part I.
Observations were made of the morphological picture of the rabbit tongue mucosa subjected to cryoapplication. Haematoxylin and eosin staining method showed tissue damage with a variable degree of necrosis varying in its extent in relation to the time of freezing and the term of taking samples for biological examination. Experiments with the animals permitted to estimate primary symptoms of tissue cryodestruction as well as a damage depth in the tongue mucosa.
