Hi Kathy,
Saw your message on the histonet and wanted to suggest that you might be
helped with your chicken tendons with the CryoJane Tape-Transfer process. It
is possible with CryoJane to section bone, tendons, fat and any other tissue
without compression. The end result is a flat ,thin(as thin as 2 microns)
section bonded to the slide. The section is supported and captured on a tape
window as it is being cut. It is then transferred to an adhesive-coated
slide which is then polymerized. This converts the coating to a hard plastic
with the section bonded to it. The section will not dislodge no matter what
rigorous protocol you use!

This system can be installed in virtually all cryostats!
