Hi Histonet, I am looking for a material of a precise size that I can place in my paraffin or resin blocks to act as size calibrators when we put the blocks on our automated serial sectioning and imaging robot (see www.3scan.com).
I would like to do this without processing the tissue, so I suppose I am actually asking has anyone successfully cut any materials without any processing? Thinking of brush bristles, but worried they will not cut. Also thought of carbon fibre, but possibly too hard and could damage our diamond blade. Thanks for any advice in this space. yours, mills -- Caroline Miller (mills) Director of Histology 3Scan.com 415 2187297 _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
