In my experience, it's not worth looking at tissue for the spirochete using
histochemical stains or IHC. There are labs that do PCR off FFPE-tissue. Has

Hi Christina,
First I would have you use a room temperature block. If the tissue needs to be
rehydrated briefly, use room temp water instead of ice. I can get 12 micron
ribbons of bone using Paraplast extra, I haven't tried thicker.
If that doesn't work, what blade are you using? In my

Hi Christina,
I agree with Rene Buesa that ideally you should have added a cryoprotection
step prior to freezing. If you snap freeze quickly enough though, you might
have gotten away with no freezing artifact. An HE will tell you that. If it

There is no standard of care (remember that standard of care is a

I suppose you're referring to the embedding gel for cytology cell
