Re: Advice.

From:Sarah Jones

Are you working the night shift Ian?  Dear, dear, time to be home with
the pinney and duster.  I assume you mean sections, not bugs, free
floating.  I use culture wells and a glass pipet, curved in a flame so
it picks up the sections well.  I would just change the tap water after
Schiffs instead of using running tap.  How small are they? 
Coverslipping is always challenging and probably would be followed by a
trip to the pub.  
Best wishes, Sarah

         About to stain Trichostrongylus tenius with PAS and an H&E but
as 
they are free floating and tiny I'm not quite sure how to tackle this 
problem. Any advice?
Ian.
