[Histonet] Recommended thickness of Amyloid sections

[Paula Keene Pierce]

As this is my 41 year of being a registered HT, I was taught that slides for amyloid are to be cut at 8-10µm.

 Hello All.  We have always cut all of our histology control slides at 5m.  We were told today that it is common practice to cut Amyloid at 8m?  Is this your experience?

Ken
