Re: Paraffin blocks

From:Vicki Gauch <GauchV@mail.amc.edu>

Andrea,
 We store our paraffin blocks in plastic storage drawer units at room temperature.  We do not seal our blocks after sectioning.

Two general consensus questions for Histonet:

(1)  How do people store their paraffin blocks? What sort of unit? At room
temp or refrigerated?
(2)  Does anyone seal their blocks with paraffin after sectioning prior to
storage? Or some other method? Do people just leave the cut surface
exposed?

Just wondering.
