Hi everyone!
I would like to stain cryosections of human atrial tissue with Picrosirius
Red in order to quantify collagen fibers. Cryosections are obtained by a

Thanks in advance

I have been having a discussion with my boss about whether or not to store
the isopentane (used for freezing muscle biopsies) in the refrigerator. (An
expensive, explosion proof one that I would have to buy.)
Her only experience is with the isopentane stored in the

printer? Does it have major issues?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Bea,
You can use need to use the clipped corner slides. The best ones are the Epic
Scientific slides available from CWS, Inc or the clipped corner Tanner slides
available from Mercedes Medical. I'm sure others carry them also. These are
the only two slides I've found that work really well in
*I need to gather information on any instrumentation that will enable me to
digitally scan routine slides and send them to my Dr.*
*We are at the beginning of our quest to place one in the lab.*
*I am really interested in what my fellow colleagues opinions is concerning
