RE: [Histonet] water bath adhesives

From:"SMITH,REBEKAH FELICIA"

I'm kinda paranoid about my sections falling of in IHC (antigen 
retrieval can cause them to fall off, and besides IHC takes so 
long that I don't want to have my sections fall off in my last 
water rinse and have wasted all that time) so I both add 1 tsp of 
gelatin to my water bath and coat my slides with    poly-l-lysine. 
The other person who works in my lab has used gelatin in the water 
bath and then plus slides with good results as well. (I don't use 
plus slides mainly because they are more expensive.)

"You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the 
stars
You have a right to be here and whether or not it is clear to you, 
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at 
peace with G-d, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your 
labors and aspirations,in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace 
in your soul.-Max Ehrmann,"Desiderata"
