Hi Histonetters, I have someone here who is having problems with their samples (mouse lung and mammary). It appears that the sample is very brittle when she cuts and in addition, some of the paraffin around the sample in the cassette is very white in color instead of the normal translucent color. I think it is poor infiltration of some kind.
I told her about this great resource, this website, and I told her I would get lots of helpful responses. If anyone would like a picture, I could send you one. Thank you, Margaret E.
