[Histonet] Embedding Stamp???

2009-04-14 Thread Yeonju Shim
Hi,
I am trying to order a tool that I can flatten wavy tissues down at the
bottom of the mold for embedding.
It looks like a little metal square (kind of) stamp.
Do anyone know what it's called and where I can order?
Thank you,
Judy

[Histonet] Histology for Zebrafish

2009-03-06 Thread Yeonju Shim
Hi,
I need to work on zebrafish for the first time and would like to get some
general protocols for fixation and IHC staining.
My investigator used 4% PFA for 2 hrs at RT for a whole zebrafish and
sections didn't come out right (falling off  not preserved well).
I am going to increase the time and also try 10% formalin over night. Please
let me know if formalin works ok for IHC later.
Thank you.
Judy
