Dear Histonetters

I have formalin fixed specimens which are in 20% succrose since tuesday. I wanted to section them today but my cryostat stopped working. Now I do not know how long the specimens can be stored in the succrose or if it would be better to put them back to formalin and cryoprotect again when the cryostat is repaired? Or do you have other deas how to handle this situation???

Thanks in advance for any advice
