[Histonet] block scrapers

[Elizabeth Chlipala]

I have always used a very dull steak knife (sharp ones are too sharp and will cut the cassette) mine is probably over 20 years old (now I'm dating myself).  I'm old school so I still use that but the rest of the techs will use the para trimmer.  The para trimmer is more ergonomically friendly less repetitive than a knife -  here is the link to the website

Hi all,

My lab is in need of some tools to scrap the paraffin off the edges of the blocks after embedding. Does anyone have any recommendations for me?


Thanks!!
