Histological Study of the Immune System in Zebrafish, Danio Rerio (Hamilton, 1822)

The aim of the present study was to investigate the cellular characteristics of the immune tissues of Zebrafish, Danio rerio (Hamilton, 1822). The fish were fixed in Bouin՚s solution for 24 hours then dehydrated, cleared, paraffinized, embedded and finally sectioned, stained and observed through opt...
