Kathleen,
I would suggest you contact one of the Veterinary Schools for assistance. I
remember that we had some when I was at LSU Vet School, but not much else.
Also try one of the Marine Biology programs down in Florida, they may be able
to help.

Hello,
I have to cut FFPE blocks of whale skin for in IHC study. I am having
difficulty with both cutting and floating. Any advice would be much appreciated!

How did you manage to deal with the about 0.5 m of blubber?Was it the skin of a
new born whale? I just to not understand, but you have to completely eliminate
all the fat and increase your processing protocol (infiltration specially) to
have some chance of getting any relatively "decent" section.Ren?
