[Histonet] REmounting sections

[Dianne Holmes]

I have a very special OLD (approx. 10 years)  brain slide with BDA
reaction that has been 'crashed' by a 1X objective !!  Is there a
relatively safe way to remove the coverslip and keep the tissue intact
to be remounted on a new slide?   Ordinarily, I would soak the slide in
xylene to remove the coverslip but I am not sure of the integrity of the
tissue and whether it can withstand such harsh treatment.   Any
suggestions?   Thanks - you guys have been wonderfully helpful in the
past.
