Re: [Histonet] dehydration time for a relatively large sample
Hi, Thanks for prompt response. We unfortunately do not have a processor in our lab at university..The protocol i wrote was working in quail embryonic samples (just before hatching). I process the tissue manually and cannot process the tissue with strict time schedule. Thus, I need to leave a sample overnight at some point. I cut the zebra finch head into anterior (beak) and posterior (brain) region and mid-sagittally in both. so each tissue sample is about 0.5 X 1 X 1cm cube at maximum. I have also tried short time schedule compared the one i wrote in previous email, for similar sized sample (zebra finch beak). However, it never worked. Thus i prolonged the each step for the latest sample. It would be great if you could provide me the proper time schedule. rui From: k...@regionsjaelland.dk To: ru...@hotmail.com Subject: SV: [Histonet] dehydration time for a relatively large sample Date: Wed, 20 May 2015 06:18:24 + Hi Rui Which processor unit do you use to me it seems like a wrong protocol. Maybe I can help you set up a better protocol - if you want - but then I need to know size og your tissue, processor unit and what kind of clearens you use.

I have been trying to section adult zebra finch beak and processed several samples, however, i failed to obtain a good section. It appears that the paraffin did not penetrated the tissue. This may be derived from incomplete dehydration and clearing before paraffin. Because i have read somewhere that if the sample was sitting in 95 and 100% ethanol too long it would be brittle and be teared when sectioned. I have processed only a beak (about 1 cmX0.5 mm). Also when is an appropriate time to use vacuum? I am afraid that if i used it at 100% ethanol, the ethanol would evaporate so far I have tried; fix overnight decalcified few days walk from water to 70% ethanol; overnight 85%, 95% (2times change) and 100 % (2 times change) ethanol; overnight clearing; 2 days paraffin (2 times change); overnight Any suggestion would be appreciated.
