[Histonet] Tissue Orientation Markers

[Igor Deyneko]

Hello fellow Histonetters,

Has anyone ever worked with any type of a tissue orientation marker that is
not a dye, but rather some sort of a synthetic product that can be
processed and then sliced in a microtome?

Previously, we have used plain gut sutures and dyed histogel, which we
processed and made paraffin punch biopsies and then placed it as a tissue
marker along with tissues of interest and processed again. It's quite
cumbersome, so I'm trying to see if there are better options out there?

Thank you!
