Re: [Histonet] cell block agar

 If one is in a hospital setting, I just go into Micro and get a TSA
slant.  Loosen the top and pop it in the microwave for 5-10 seconds. Ta-daa!
Cell block!

[Histonet] cell block agar

2011-03-18 Thread Michele Carr
I was wondering if anyone has a technique or method for making agar for cell 
blocks.  I was also looking for manufactured agar and where I can get it from.  
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,

We use histogel here.  It is very easy and quick to use.
