This study compares the use of 10% formalin, Bouin and Carnoy as fixatives on several mouse tissues to determine histomorphological features. In this experimental study, liver, kidney, heart, lung, testicle, spleen, brain and cartilage tissues were isolated from five BALB\/c mice. Then, they were fixed with three types of fixatives. After dehydrating, clarifying and embedding, all samples were stained with haematoxylin and eosin. Then, the tissue structure of the viscera was evaluated qualitatively. The results showed that each fixative is more suitable for evaluating a specific part of the tissue. However, relative shrinkage appeared in the tissue sections fixed with 10% Formalin, (1) in the heart as spaces between muscle fibre bundles, (2) in the liver as the dilation of the liver sinusoidal spaces, (3) in the kidney tissue as the expansion of the lumens of the convoluted proximal and distal tubules, (4) in the spleen as open spaces inside the red and white pulps and (5) in the brain as an increase in the space between the cells of the granular and pyramidal cell layers of the cortex. In tissues that were soft and fragile, such as testis, liver and brain, Bouin's fixative was more suitable. Carnoy's fixative was more suitable for the spleen and kidney tissue. Based on the study results, formalin and Bouin were more suitable for heart and cartilage tissue. Considering that in the histopathological evaluation both the cytoplasm and the nucleus are evaluated, it is suggested to choose the fixative suitable for the type of tissue.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ahe.12945","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,1]],"date-time":"2023-07-01T07:23:59Z","timestamp":1688196239000},"page":"882-889","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Comparative evaluation of the effect of three types of fixatives (formalin, Bouin and Carnoy) on histomorphological features of various viscera"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"52","author":[{"given":"Mansoureh","family":"Mirzaei","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Molecular and Cell Biology Research Center Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences  Sari Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Reza","family":"Eshaghi\u2010Gorji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Student Research Committee Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences  Sari Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Fani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Molecular and Cell Biology Research Center Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences  Sari Iran"},{"name":"Student Research Committee Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences  Sari Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abbasali","family":"Karimpour\u00a0Malekshah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Molecular and Cell Biology Research Center Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences  Sari Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4236-7439","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fereshteh","family":"Talebpour\u00a0Amiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Molecular and Cell Biology Research Center Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences  Sari Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.33899\/ijvs.2021.131918.2023"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.anndiagpath.2020.151604"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.33545\/pathol.2021.v4.i4b.433"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","unstructured":"Bhat A.
