Subject: frozen embryos
Dear all,
I am having a couple of problems with the freezing down of some mouse
embryos.
Firstly can anybody suggest the best way to freeze down unfixed (about
day 14) embryos without them cracking.
Secondly what's the best way to freeze down fixed embryos. The problem
with these is that if I cryoprotect them with 30% sucrose, this
concentrates in the body cavities and then prevents me from sectioning
them.
Thanks for any help in advance
