Hi Sharon,

1. Stuff the tissue in a cryovial or wrap it in foil and throw it in liquid N.

2. Put the tissue in a cryomold with OCT covering it and either place it on some frozen isopentane; put it in a slurry of isopentane and dry ice pieces; or suspend over liquid N vapors to freeze.

Not sure if this is what you were looking for, precisely?

Regards,
Merced
