Subject: [Histonet] Mounting large cryosections

 

Histonetters,

 

I've been preparing CryoJane slides for my cryo sections on 25mm slides

for the last year and they work great for 1 square-inch blocks. Our

research has advanced and I am  moving to a 4 square-inch machine that

requires a 48mm slide. CryoJane makes their 2-inch tape for section

collection, however they do not make a 48mm slide with the adhesive

coating used on their 24mm slides. I had heard that albumin will work,

but was wondering if anyone else is mounting larger, whole-animal cryo

sections and what solutions you could offer.

 

thanks in advance,

 

Greg Dasso
