[Histonet] Perfusion Fixation of Mouse Hearts

[Geoff McAuliffe]

Hi Christopher:

    I think the best thing you can do to learn this proceedure is to 
find a lab doing this and go observe. This is definitely a "picture is 
worth a thousand words" thing. You could read pages and pages of 
protocol and still not understand what to do or how to do it.
