Greetings I need some advice regarding microtome knives. I am not histo tech, I did all my sectioning in a plant research lab, but now I find myself needing to learn more about histo type methods.
We have microtomes, AO 820's, and we have a bunch of donated knives. I need advice about whether it would be better to find a knife sharpener and use the microtome knives we have, or check into getting a disposable knife holder. When I was sectioning, we just used a simple razor blade holder. Now I see references to high profile and low profile blades and holders, and I don't know the difference. Anyone willing to help me out?
