[Histonet] Cryostat vs decal sections of bone

[louise renton]

Hi all,

last year sometime I was asked to budget for some equipment for our unit.
Not expecting to get anything i aimed high, and requested a cryostat and
cryoJane system.
Lo and behold, the planetary influences were just right, and my request was
approved. Now, I've got cold feet (pardon the pun) and I'm wondering if
there *are*  any distinct advantages of cryosections of bone over
demineralised wax embedded samples in regards to immuno and in-situ ?.
