[Histonet] frozen slides storage

[Turner, Scott]

Research Products International makes freezer racks that hold the black
25 slide boxes, as well as 100 slide boxes.  We use the 25 slide box
racks and they are quite good for organizing slides in the freezer.

Hi, all

  I have a question about how to organize frozen slides in freezer? We
have a lot of slide boxes inside the -80c freezer. It is very hard to
find which one is which one when we start to do IHC staining several
weeks later. We want to organize it and put all the information in the
computer system. Right now I found the companies only sell racks for
organizing blocks, not for slides(We usually use 100 slides box for one
submitter). Does anyone have any experience on it? How do you organize
your unstained slides?

  Thank you,
