Re: paraffin embedding

From:louise renton

I recall, that several years ago, there was as system of
making cell blocks in conjuction with the use of a Shandon cytospin. If I 
remember rightly, the cells were spun down in the cytospin with the 
solutions supplied, and they made this neat jelly-like block, which you then 
processed and wax embedded as normal. I wonder if this system is still 
available?
