...I just want to add, I could see it being a problem only in the sense
that thicker sections tend to give more background in your
immunostaining...however, you could conversely get greater signal strength
as well...

Hi Guys,
Just wondering what thickness you cut sections at? I was always used to
cutting at 2-3 microns in my last lab, however in my new place they are
cutting at 6 microns (for both H & Es and IHC), which seems to me as
really quite thick! What would be the average cutting thickness?
Thanks a mill,
Vanessa
