I can tell you how I do this. Cells usually arrive in a centrifuge tube.
Spin down add some warm histo gel and viola you have a nice pellet that will
go through the processor with ease. If you have a very particular client and
they want a specific dilution that can be done as well!

Good luck!

Subject: [Histonet] searching the archives for a specific posting


I have a paper copy of a posting from Jan. 23, 2003. The subject line says
"Cell Blocks". The posting contains a protocol for embedding cells using
histogel specimen processing gel and I wanted to send the posting to someone
else. No matter what combination of keywords I use, or how I look, I cannot
find this posting in the archives. Any suggestions?
