Hi folks - has anyone out there found a Cd79α clone and supplier which will
cover multiple species reliably?
I can find clones which will stain cats and dogs (and humans), and clones which
will cover horses, pigs, cows and primates (and humans, but not opossums for
some reason??) but i'm yet to

The best tip I ever received was from a gentleman in Australia who suggested
adding a very small - so small it would appear to be useless - amount of Tween
20 to the floatation water bath. The entrapment of water is eliminated - no
more blebs of water at the base of the sections. Works like ma
Another individual called me and commented further, which clarified your
statement. It is actually poor lab practice to combine the drying/baking.
These steps should really be done separately so as to not "trap" the water
under the tissue. I have noticed bubbles of water on the bottom of my s

So there really isn't a point in using an oven to dry the slides? I currently
dry my slides for an hour at 55-60 degrees C.

Nacaela:
Heat by itself is not the cause, but the heat applied to sections that have not
been properly drained and still have water left between them and the slide, is.
You have to drain the sections properly before heating them.
Using formalin is not the cause.

Has anyone one had problems with nuclear bubbling? I have read about
two different causes. (1) Formalin itself is known to cause the issue
and (2) heating the tissue at a high temp (70 degrees C or above) while
drying. The latter is definitely not happening, but I do use formalin.
I am in the pr
I never heard of any such recommendations. DMSO doesn't react with
plastics or metals, and those are the only surfaces the embedding medium
comes into contact with, so I wouldn't expect any problems. In any
case, from a personal perspective, I used Paraplast Plus, which contains

I was wondering if anyone had a picture of a tumor stained with H and E.
Please reply with it if you do. It does not matter the tissue. Thanks
