paraffin, it is kind of sticky. But if you wear new shoes, or shoes that

You could contact Simport. A few years ago I got some deeper disposable molds
from them and they work great with tissues that are too high for the regular
molds (like the Tissue-tek molds). The only problem is that they only came in
the large width and you waste a lot of paraffin. Another though

You can't go from 70% alcohol into paraffin without passing through 100%

In Florida we need to keep blocks only during 9 years. Every year we disposed
those kept for 9 years and started a new series (using the same cabinets).

We contact the person who requested and submitted the specimens to find out
if they want the blocks or tissue in some cases. If they no longer want
them, have moved on to another facility or graduated and gone so are the
