[Histonet] LMD ... IHC sections falling off

[Amos Brooks]

Victoria,
         Firstly try thinner sections 10 um is a bit thick. Next you should 
use some type of charged, silanized or APES slides. You can either silanize 
your own slides or buy them from a vendor. Adhesives aren't necessarily 
good for IHC as they can interfere with the reaction.
