[Histonet] RE: Fish gills

[gayle callis]

We had superb sections of fish gills after GMA embedding - 2 to 3 um thick
sections cut with glass knives, and an H&E stain.  The gills were separated
but if your samples are very small, no more than 1 mm or so thick, GMA
should work.  Our departmental photographer won a major scientific
photographic contest with her photomicrographs of these gills showing
parasites attached to the gills.
