Why do you have to use NSS instead of water in preparing fecal smear?

NSS (normal saline solution) is used instead of water in preparing a fecal smear to prevent lysis (rupturing) of red blood cells in the sample. Using water can cause hemolysis, which may interfere with the accurate interpretation of the fecal sample. Normal saline is isotonic and helps maintain the integrity of the red blood cells in the smear.

What do you put cells on in a microscope?

Cells are typically placed on a glass slide before being viewed under a microscope. The glass slide provides a stable and transparent surface for the cells to be observed. A cover slip is often placed on top of the cells to protect them and to help focus the microscope's lenses on the sample.
