Precision cut kidney slices

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Precision-cut kidney slices refer to thin sections of the kidney tissue that are prepared with high precision to study kidney functions, drug metabolism or disease processes. Researchers use these slices to study the impact of substances on renal function.[1][2] This includes drug metabolism[3][4] and the effects of toxic substances.[5]
