Abstract
A method is described which permits study of the interface of tissue and bulk implant at the light and electron microscopic level. It is based on epoxy embedding of implant and surrounding tissue with subsequent separation of implant and plastic. The separation takes place at the interface between tissue and implant; neither cells nor matrix are disturbed.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
