Does anybody have a Protocol for perfusion of mouse bone femur. It looks like my protocol does not work.
1.fix in 4% PFA in PBS for 24 hrs in refrigerator
2. wash in PBS 3x 
3. transfer in 14 %EDTA for 5 days.
4. Wash in water for maximum of 2 hrs in running water
6. perfusion with 15% sucrose overnight
7.perfusion with 30% overnight.
8. Transfer in OCT.
8. Cut in 10 um and transfer section on APES slide
 
Results: When cutting section, the tissue does not adhere to the slides properly.
 
Can you please help us or any comment to correct this protocol.
