Just FYI peeps. Certain tissue types need more hydration ( hence the variance in soaking times). If a tissue is dry for sectioning such as brain or liver, it needs to sit on wet ice for longer. If tissue is fatty such as deep melanomas, breast, lipomas etc soaking the block on water is about the biggest mistake you can make. It will interfere with sectioning if you introduce water after processing. It will be incompatible with xylene that is still present in the tissue and explode on the water bath. The whole point of soaking your block prior to sectioning is to hydrate the tissue so that the morphology is more accurate on the slide.

That’s the most ridiculous technique for floating ribbon. Why wouldn’t you just anchor your ribbon the one side of your water bath. Who wants to chase the ribbon all over their water like that? You must work in a very low volume lab to be soaking your blocks for one to twenty four hours. That’s insane!!! Who has processors that are drying the tissue out that much they need soaking for hours?

The best way to learn is to watch experienced people that you work with and ask questions. Honestly microtomy is about practice and muscle memory. if you are having specific issues check out ihcworld.com's troubleshooting guide. Just google microtome sectioning troubleshooting.

@@towens1168 Oh wow, thanks for the information! I didn't expect a response on a 2-year-old comment. Nice suggestions there. The lab I work at doesn't deal with sectioning at all, there's a biology one that I don't have access to, they do all the sectioning. I guess I'll try and somehow wiggle in to learn stuff. I'm looking to grow my personal "lab" for microscopy imaging rather than anything professional. Sometimes, these manual microtomes pop up on flea market sites at alright prices.

@@diatomsaus Yeah no problem. So if you're going to be using already prepared blocks that might work. You will still need to buy the chemicals to H&E stain the slides at the very least. I don't think Hematoxylin or Eosin are controlled chemicals so you should be able to get some if you want (I could be wrong about that never looked them up). If you want to prepare your own blocks that gets much more complicated. You need to fix the tissue first and then process it and then you need to be able to embed it. I imagine that could all be done without a processor or an embedding station but it would be a pain at best. Processing takes anywhere from a few hours to overnight. Honestly there's a lot of work and money (and skill) that goes into making a slide. If the imaging is what you're really interested in you might be better off just buying slides.

@@towens1168 Yeah, at the moment I have a big collection of slides. Some vintage, some from preparers such as Klaus Kemp who deals with diatoms, recently (sadly) retired. Out of all the Chinese ones I've tried, I found one university ran company that offers great quality at prices that are a lot higher (similar prices to western companies), but quality is what I'm after so it's fine. Generally, Carolina(dot)com offers exceptional slides to anyone who wants to buy prepared ones, their shipping costs isn't bad either. I've already spent enough money on all the microscope stuff. I've decided to forget about making my own slides unless I get the chances to do so at work (our labs have pretty liberal policies, we can visit for our own projects luckily). A microtome is anywhere from $500-$1000+ with blades being another expensive disposable, along with all the staining chemicals and issues with dust/fibres which sort of warrants a benchtop clean-room assembly cabinet... it's an endless hole. Either way, thanks for your insight!
