Histological examination is a crucial step in an autopsy; however, the traditional histochemical staining of post-mortem samples faces multiple challenges, including the inferior staining quality due to autolysis caused by delayed fixation of cadaver tissue, as well as the resource-intensive nature of chemical staining procedures covering large tissue areas, which demand substantial labor, cost, and time.
