Correct answer
The correct answer is the first one. Time after death and autolysis are major impediments for the adequate evaluation of histological lesions and the detection of infectious agents in enteric cells. As the great majority of samples arrive at the diagnostic laboratory the day after their collection, the submission of only fresh intestinal samples would significantly limit or even prevent proper histological evaluation.
