From: Jennifer Anderson <jander...@halozyme.com> Subject: [Histonet] freezing paraffin blocks To: Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Date: Friday, February 13, 2009, 5:43 PM Hi All. I've just started sectioning Bouin's fixed paraffin embedded human/mouse/rat/pig skin again, tissues processed in a softer wax than I'm used to, so I've been putting the blocks in the freezer at -20 prior to sectioning. Will such cold deleteriously affect the blocks or tissue? Also, is there any harm in cleaning the water bath with a little xylene to remove any wax build-up? Thanks a lot. Jennifer M.
