Histonetters,
There is an investigator here who will soon be working with human eye 
"parts" that are frozen and sectioned on a cryostat. Right now they are not 
certain of what "parts" other than macula. Can these be snap frozen they 
way we do livers and kidneys, etc. or is there something special about eye 
tissue that requires some alternative freezing procedure to produce a 
better section?
Thanks.
Andi Grantham
