The authors reviewed the main steps of the efforts towards the improvement of the pre-analytical phase of tissue processing for histological examination. Results: Since their introduction decades ago tissue microarrays (TMAs) proved their value by increasing efficiency, standardization and accuracy of many histological techniques, such as histochemistry, histoenzymology, immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, etc. By allowing the simultaneous analysis and comparison of multiple different tissues on a single histology slide (up to 1000 individual samples), TMAs are also having a significant economic advantage (consumables and labor). From its first description until recent years, the TMA techniques have evolved steadily but slowly despite many attempts to adapt it for clinical diagnostics. In this paper, we are reviewing the main techniques of obtaining TMA blocks from the...

In a first step, the epoxidation and subsequently the methacrylation reactions of CO were performed and monitorized using 1HNMRand FTIR. Further, the polymerization reaction of the new synthesized oil‐based monomer under visible light was proved by FTIR. The chain length of methacrylate functionalized PEG was found to directly influence some key properties of the oil‐based networks. The curing performance of the systems was studied by GF measurements. Water uptake capacity tests and contact angle measurements were undertaken and it was found that the internal arrangement of components is strongly affecting the hydrophilicity of the materials. Furthermore, nanostructured polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) compounds bearing one or eight me...
