[Histonet] Histology and immuonhistochemistry of Drosophila eye sections

[pam johnson]

I have been approached by an investigator?who wants us to do some work on fly eyes. Has anyone had any experience with fly eyes in paraffin? If so can you please share your protocols on processing and cutting. Aren't they very crunchy? Do you process the whole head? 

?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
