[Histonet] how to keep toenail on the slide

[Joe Nocito]

Joe the Toe here. I believe I can ass ist you here. (oops, I know I just mad 
someone mad, but, it wouldn't be me if I didn't).
Have you tried positive charged slides? Do you soak your nails in a solution 
before cutting?
We soak our nails in 20% sodium hydroxide (thank you Rene), then cut them 
and place on Plus Slides. We place the slides upright in an 80 C oven for 15 
minutes and let the slides cool completely before staining. Need to make 
sure that all the water is out. Hope this helps.
