[Histonet] Plastic Embedding

From:"Herrick, James L."



Hello everyone,

Does anyone have any experience with plastic embedding using Glycol
Methacrylate (GMA), Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) or other products that
could be used to embed vertebral specimens large enough that require
approximately 100 mLs of solution to embed completely. The problem I am
having using GMA is that the reaction becomes extremely hot and
polymerizes into a block full of holes and bubbles. I would really
appreciate any advice, protocols, etc., that you may have. Thanks.

Jim
