[Histonet] Feline retina whole mounts - tissue loss

[Amy Porter]

Help....I have a researcher who for years has used the same sample preparation by placing whole mount feline retinas on 1% Gelatin subbed slides and then vapor (curing) fixing with 37%-40% for 48 hours.  They are suddenly having problems with tissue falling off of their slides.  Does anyone out there have a suggestion or a source for some type of commercial subbing adhesive solution?  Thanks in advance for the help.
