AW: [Histonet] AO-860 Sliding Microtome + OCT Embedded Tissue?

[Gudrun Lang]

Microm sells freezing devices, that can be used with sliding microtomes.
Perhaps you can get a machine like that.
http://www.microm-online.com/index.html under microtome accessories.

Another idea is using a table-freezing microtom, old style.

Betreff: [Histonet] AO-860 Sliding Microtome + OCT Embedded Tissue?

Hello,

I am a newbie to this type of work. We have flash frozen tissue in OCT
(Optimal Cutting Temperature) compound for some unique experiments
that we need to carry out. We want to use a AO-860 sliding microtome
to cut large slabs of OCT embedded tissue. Does anyone have any advice
on how this would work reproducibly and reliably on the freezing
stage.

Best,

Francis
