Hello Listers,
Which techniques are you all using to avoid cross contamination when cutting multiple sections from multiple blocks for DNA analysis? Way back I used to use DEP-C treated water, wore gloves, changed the blade between blocks and wiped down the surface of the knife holder plate with the DEP-C water and ETOH. What is the currently accepted procedure?
