Cytology refers to the microscopic examination of both plant and animal cell samples with regards to their structure, chemical composition, and function. The examination of cells can be carried out through various methods such as scraping the tissue surface, collection of bodily fluids, fine needle aspiration, and others. Histology refers to the microscopic study of the structure, chemical composition and function of animal and plant tissues. Histology requires a complicated slide preparation process, which usually include five steps i.e. fixation, processing, embedding, sectioning, and staining. Staining helps in highlighting and enhancing the contrast of biological structures such as muscle fibers, a particular cell organelle or a blood cell type to be studied inside the bulk tissues. Many modernized staining techniques have been adopted in the field of histology and cytology to effectively study complex biological structures inside targeted cell or tissue. Some of these staining techniques include in-situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. Both histology and cytology are essential for diagnosis of diseases such as cervical cancer, oral cancer, smallpox, rabies, and others.
