| Abstract;The type of electromagnetic waves and practical examples, outline of microwave oven, frequency characteristics at 2.45 GHz, the action and effect of microwave irradiation on pathological samples, practice of the irradiation, and the future of the irradiation are described. Microwave indicates those with the frequencies at 0.3-30GHz and wavelength of 1mm-1m among the electromagnetic waves. As the action and effect of the microwave irradiation, there are the activation of molecular motion in the solution including dielectric material such as water, and the efficient conversion into thermal energy by microwave. The opportunity for pigments to contact with tissue slice increases by the active molecular motion, and infiltration and combination to the tissue are promoted to shorten the time in the reaction such as staining. Also, in tissue fixation, there seems to be a synergistic effect by the internal heating action with the increase in contacting chances for fixative and tissue slice. Rapid heating of the solution used for antigen activation is a representative of heat effect by microwave. |
