[Histonet] different microtome?

[DiCarlo, Margaret]

Hello Everyone,

 

I am attempting to cut decaled (with EDTA) dog bone tissue which is
attached to a partial tooth, manually processed and embedded in Tissue
Prep 2 paraffin.  I have cut one block but have only gotten thick and
thin sections.  I am currently using a Microm HM 325 using high profile
disposable blades.  My boss wanted me to find out if there is a better
microtome out there that could cut this tissue serially.  Are there any?

 

Thank you.
