Yes, Cryo M Bed is firmer and more supportive.  Try to inject some of
whatever you use into the lumen before freezing.  That would help
greatly.  Call me off histonet and we will see if we can arrange a
sample.
 

Cordially,

Hi Dr.Scouten and histonetters,
Does it mean that Cryo M Bed more "supportive" than OCT. I work with 
murine carotid arteries with atheroscl. plaque. .I fix them for 2 hours 
in 10 % formalin and embed in OCT, but I have to cut with T  -28 C in 
microtome and mount on cool slides , otherwise I am not able to obtain 
good  vessel' lumen and plaque scrolls up or falls down and still I 
receive 30% of distorted slices. Any advices will be appreciate.
