[Histonet] accidentally frozen samples

[Rene J Buesa]

The bast approach will be to try to do the cartilage/bone staining. It is preferable to do this than to consider the samples already ruined and incur in the expense of a new sampling.

Subject: [Histonet] accidentally frozen samples

One of our students accidentally put his samples in the freezer after formaldehyde/glutardialdehyde/PBS fixation. The samples (fish very early stage, of course rare species) were meant for LM/EM morphology studies.
Good morphology is out, but is there a chance he can do cartilage/bone staining? Or do we need to send him abroad for new sampling at the next spawning time?
