Dear all

Can anyone help? we have recently used the last of our adenovirus positive
blocks, and guess what instead of the odd request  once in a while, we are
now getting them every other day  (or so it seems). I have looked at
commercially available controls slides, but at around £10 per slide they are
wayyy too expensive for this mean Scot, who works in an underfunded
department. Does any one know of somewhere I could buy a block from which a
reasonable number of sections could be cut.

Many thanks in advance
