Hi All,
            I have a question for anyone out there that is working with 
frozen tissue. I have a clinical lab that I am working with to obtain
skin 
biopsies and they wants to freeze skin biopsies with dry-ice methanol 
instead of the dry-ice isopentane, Will this be a problem for me 
sectioning and doing IHC for cytokines and membrane bound antibodies? I
do 
not like the idea of this but I don't  have any information on if it
would 
be deleterious to freezing or do IHC this way. Anyone have any thoughts 
our suggestions?

Thanks

Jamie
