Subject: RE: [Histonet] Paraffin blocks from cell line
we made a cell block from cell line by following procedure:
- centrifuge cell suspension
- fix the sediment overnight in formalin (for tissue fixation) - optional,
the button will be anyway fixed by subsequent procedure
- centrifuge and decant the formalin
- add few drops of liquid agar (not too hot)
- as the button solidify you can put it in cassette and process as
diagnostic tissue.
We got good immunoreactions on sections prepared from melanoma cell line for
example.
hope this helps

Subject: [Histonet] Paraffin blocks from cell line
Hi histonetters,
Has anyone made up paraffin blocks from cells from a cell line. This is
new to me. I assume they will be in some kind of a media. We will be getting
the cells and incubating them to grow.
Thanks in advance for the help
