Hi

What do people use to remove spinal cords from rats during post mortems??
At present we use large scissors to cut through the bone but are looking to
try a mechanical tool to replace this.
Does any one have any recomendations.??

Thanks

Susan


Thanks to all who replied so quickly,


To clarify,

I am actually wanting to remove the whole spinal column with the cord
inside, so it would be a tool to cut through the ribs attached to the
spinal column,  we do a lot of pm's and are trying to make life a little
easier on the hands as cutting through the bone can be tough.

Thanks once again

Susan
