Hi,
Our research laboratory is looking at purchasing a cryostat in the
near
future and we need a unit that will cut sections suitable for laser
capture
microdisection (LCM). Most of our work revolves around rat mammary gland
and
past attempts at cutting this very fatty tissue on an old IEC unit
proved
frustrating to say the least.
Our lab has been without a cryostat for a few years, so we don't know
what
latest and greatest units are available. We're looking for good unit
that
doesn't cost an arm and leg. Does anyone have any
recommendations?
Also, is anyone using the Instrumedics CyroJane system for LCM? Does
the
transfer tape interfere with RNA recovery? Any information would be
greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
John
