I posted about this earlier this year. Apparently they are no longer available in the US. I have found no substitute for these racks or adapter and Sakura was unwilling to help in any way. (Which I am still miffed about). If someone has a metal shop, here is a great opportunity.

Does anyone know a source for these that may have some left? Or do you have some you don't use anymore? The slide rack is a modified 24-slide Sakura rack that has cross bars on the bottom. The metal adaptors are inserts that slide in vertically on each end of the rack to space the slides. The catalog numbers from Sakura are: Large Slide Basket Sakura #4366 Adaptor for Large slides #4365 Tim Morken Supervisor, Histology, Electron Microscopy and Neuromuscular Special Studies UC San Francisco Medical Center Box 1656 505 Parnassus Ave San Francisco, CA 94143 USA 415.514-6042 (office) [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet IMPORTANT WARNING: The information in this message (and the documents attached to it, if any) is confidential and may be legally privileged.
