[Histonet] processing tissue with silicone mesh in it

Patsy-
We routinely process and section many meshes in paraffin. I would suggest processing a sample, embedding and sectioning to see if you can get good sections. It is worth a try.

Subject: [Histonet] processing tissue with silicone mesh in it

Does anyone have any experience with processing tissues with silicone mesh
in them so that the silicone is not dissolved by xylene and we also assume
that it might be dissolved by MMA or GMA polymers since they are strong
solvents in their own right?



Thank you,

Patsy
