Our latest preprint, led by @lizihegarty.bsky.social & aided by @erinwatson.bsky.social shows that fixation time matters when it comes to visualising #macrophages in #salivarygland & other epithelia.We find 1hr allows detection of mac subsets while preserving architecture. With @bainlab.bsky.social
