Re: liver autofluorescence

From:Dale Osborne

Greetings,
	We've had recommended to us to first block the sections with 
sodium borohydride (1mg/ml PBS).  We tried it once but without much 
success.  Since we do few livers, we haven't put much effort into finding 
a solution to the autofluorescence problem.

Good luck,
