Re: [Histonet] Looking for recommendations for a slide and cassette labeller system
Hi, I use the Brady system, which has two dimension bar coding. They also have a scan to print, which has a modem for wireless use. The customer service is outstanding. The price is pretty reasonable too.

Miha, Are your muscles arising in saline? Receive them dry or in cell culture media (eg Hanks).

I am working in Institute of Phatology Slovenia EU. Recently I have problems with muscle biopsy. There are a lots of artefact that I can not explain, like little holes in the tissue after the tissue is being frozen. We are using the isopentan and the liquid nitrogen for the freezing. Can enyone give me some ideas haw to avoid this artefact. How important is humidity in laboratory for the good results? The next problem is that after I put the tissue on the microscope slides after coloring the GTK all the tissue gets wrinkeld. Iam using the poly L lisin microscope slides or the Immuno microscope slides. Thx in advance!

Re: [Histonet] pouring of liquid nitrogen into a cryostat
Hi Louise Not a very safe practice. I have heard of people using a bag of dry ice pellets rested against the knife holder to lower the temperature of the knife, both for when the chamber is too warm or the tissue needs to be cut at a lower temperature, such as fat. regards Tony Tony Reilly B.App.Sc. , M.Sc.

Re: [Histonet] Technovit 9100 New
What is it you are trying to accomplish with staining? Can you tell us more about your project? I use Acrylosin SOFT Infiltration and Embedding solutions from Dorn and Hart Microedge (just up the road from you in Villa Park) for my thin 5 micron section and Acrylosin HARD for ground sections. Feel free to ask more questions as needed.
