Resumo(s)

Adequate adhesion of histological sections to glass slides is essential for reliable microscopic evaluation and accurate clinical diagnosis. Conventionally, section adhesion is achieved using drying ovens, a method known for its effectiveness but requiring high energy consumption and substantial laboratory space. Microwave oven heating has emerged as a potential alternative, offering faster processing and lower operational costs; however, its effectiveness for slide adhesion has not been systematically validated across different tissue types. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of microwave heating at 8000W as an alternative to conventional oven drying for histological section adhesion.
