[Histonet] Re: working with mouse liver

[Michelle MacVeigh-Aloni]

Hi Teri,

We have been discussing this option and left it at that. 

I have noticed that the livers, with more lipids look much closer to the textbook images.

Michelle,

Could it be what you are seeing is normal healthy (actively feeding) liver in mice and the missing cytoplasm is where the glycogen stores are/were?
