Does anyone know where I can purchase slide racks for the TissueTek DRS
?
We currently run about 250 slides a day and only have 6 racks (one
which is broken). Sakura is not currently manufacturing them due to a
production problem. 

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated,

Cindy Dubois

If anyone is using the Cryojane tape transfer system for cutting
undecalcified bone for frozen sections, we would appreciate your imput.
What temperature do you cut bone at and does the tape transfer the complete
section of bone to the slide?

We are getting shattering of the bone on most sections and are really having
some problems with the bubbles not rolling out. 

We are still in the testing process, but we would love to have any tips from
anyone who has more experience on how to obtain the best sections. Should
we expect to see totally intact sections when cutting bone? Also, what
freezing method have you found to be the best..Thanks in advance

Nancy

Hello, all,

I feel confused for immunofluorescence.
I am doing immunofluorescence in vertebra sections. I use the same protocol for immunostaining, but the results are very different, the one is very nice, but the other is weak, I do not know the reasons. Do different antigens need different methods for antigen retrieval? 
Generally, which methods for antigen retrieval in bone sections are better? (Enzyme digestion? or HIER? or both?)
Any suggestions will be helpful for me!

Thank you!
