[Histonet] gel pad for microtome vibration
Good Morning- I am looking for some type of gel pad to place under the microtome (or perhaps under the waterbath...) to help with vibration - the water in the waterbath is jumping all over the place. Both instruments are new and the waterbath is much lighter in weight than the old ones. Thank you for your help with this!

[Histonet] FW: standard for sm bx microtomy
Hi, Is there is a standard used for small biopsy Microtomy? I am wondering how other sites cut their biopsies (ie the number of sections per slide and the amount of roughing in between sections)? I am also curious about the number of slides per biopsy.
