Hi Laurie,

We distribute Bright's Clini-RF. We hear good reports about using 3MT
NovecT
Engineered Fluid HFE-7100 which is inert and has an excellent
environmental,
health and safety profile.

I was wondering how others are snap freezing tissue?  We have been using
a histobath (a refrigerator device that cools isopentane for freezing
tissue), but it has died.  I would love to have another Histobath, but
they are no longer carried by the vendor that I originally bought mine
from.  Does anyone know where I can get either a new or refurbished
Histobath (vendor calls are welcome)?  I'm also interested in other
freezing techniques.
