Happy New Year everyone

As the new year is upon us I and my fellow histologist feel compelled to

As I have not had much success in this area in the past I thought I would

Don't know if anyone else replied to this...but maybe try tinkering with
your angtigen retrieval? Like try altering the temp, duration, or even the

Wanda,
The first thing you need to find out is what did they denature it with.
Denatured alcohol may not be the mixture of isopropanol and methanol in ethanol
you were getting and could be chemically denatured.
This is a problem that comes up when we don't check all the variables in
I always perfuse/inflate my lung samples with dilute OCT before freezing. It
does make the cutting much easier and the morphology is pretty good considering
that it is a frozen section.
Good luck,

Cambio does sell it, I've used their probes. OpenBiosystems is their US

Healthy lung is terrible to cut frozen. All those air spaces collapse
