Shining Light on Photobleaching: An Artifact That Causes Unnecessary Excitation Among Pathologists

CONCLUSIONS.—: Clinically significant photobleaching of slides exposed to room light may occur after a few days, but not a few hours (unless exposed to excitatory fluorescent light). Conversely, thioflavin-stained slides did not photobleach when exposed to ambient room air and only negligibly when exposed to excitatory fluorescent light.PMID:37800669 | DOI:10.5858/arpa.2022-0311-OA
