It, along with other labile viruses, can also persist longer in serum and tissue debris.

The lymph nodes serve as filters, removing foreign particles, tissue debris, and bacterial cells from the circulation.

Microscopic clusters of tissue debris were flung off the valve's shaggy edges into the student's bloodstream and carried throughout his body.

Then, any necrotic tissue debris in the ulcer bed must be removed so that healthy new cells are able to migrate into the damaged area and proliferate.

This fluid becomes opaque and turbid within 24-48 hours, giving them the appearance of pustules; however, the so-called pustules are filled with tissue debris, not pus.

Upon rupture, atheroma tissue debris may spill into the blood stream; this debris is often too large (over 5 micrometers) to pass on through the capillaries downstream.

The biological removal of micro-organisms, including potential pathogens, and tissue debris from the wound of an immune-competent patient is a wound cleansing activity that takes place almost immediately after wounding and which helps to reduce the threat of infection.

In most cases the lungs show only multiple small foci with greyish centres containing the worms and tissue debris, but in the rare severe infections larger nodules are present, up to 1.0 cm in diameter with caseous centres, projecting from the lung surface; these nodules may coalesce to form areas of consolidation.
