Fecal muscle fiber

Feces muscle fibers Muscle fibers are an item in stool microscopy, which can understand digestive and absorption functions and assist in the diagnosis of digestive system diseases. Muscle fiber is the striated muscle of animals, which disappears after digestion and decomposition by protease. A small amount of muscle fibers can be seen after a large amount of meat is eaten, but should not exceed 10 in the range of a cover sheet (18mm × 18mm), which is light yellow strips, flakes, with horizontal stripes of fiber. Adding eosin can stain red . It can increase in intestinal hypertrophy, diarrhea, or protein indigestion. When the pancreas exocrine function is reduced, not only the muscle fibers increase, but the vertical and horizontal lines are easily visible, and even the nucleus is visible, which is evidence of severe pancreatic insufficiency.
