[Histonet] electron microscopy on bone

2012-12-04 Thread Breisch, Eric
I'm hoping someone might be able to guide me to a laboratory which is capable of completing transmission electron microscopy on cortical bone or perhaps would be willing to share a procedure. Our interest is in osteoclast ultrastructure. Thank you. Eric A. Breisch, Ph.D. Clinical Anatomist

[Histonet] protein concentration for Cy2

2010-04-22 Thread Breisch, Eric
This question if for anyone doing C4d immunoflourescence staining. Could someone share what protein concentration the Cy2 labeled anti-mouse IgG is prepared at and what buffer is used for that? Our final dilution of the Cy2 is (1:100 in 1%BSA/PBS) but we don't know what the original protein

[Histonet] bone histology and storage

2009-03-03 Thread Breisch, Eric
Does anyone have a methodology for long term storage of bone? Formalin vs alcohol? Orthopedic group here is wondering whether bone for research purposes should be preferentially stored in alcohol. They aren't interested in immunohistochemistry but rather tensile properties of bone. I haven't been
