[Histonet] Re: Whole human feet- Cryomacrotome

[Jamie E Erickson]

Hi All,
              It would not be a paraffin sections but you could do a whole 
human foot with a cryomacrotome (frozen). It can section a small monkey 
(sagittally) so I think a human foot would be not a problem. There are 
contract labs (Convance and Quest Pharmaceuticals  that do contract whole 
body work you could contract them. For more information check out the 
societies web page @   http://www.autoradiography.net/index.html
