Nancy,
I did a manual array block to see if my method would work. I think it works nicely. A great alternative for those who don't want to spend thousands on a tissue microarrayer. Go to my website and click on NEW INFO (Top Right) and it will take you to my results. www.arrayworkshop.com
Good Luck,
Thom Jensen
