Dear Histonet,

          I have to apologize in advance because I know for certain this
topic was just discussed and of course I didn't take note because it wasn't
an issue for me at the time.  What kind of Gelatin is used to coat slides
that will be used for MMA plastic sections?  Moreover, could someone please
send a recipe and protocol for coating the slides? I am new to this to this
particular  venue of histology so I would appreciate any input.  If I
recall correctly there is a certain type of Gelatin that should be used???
As always thank you so much for the invaluable input.  The Histonet and its
members have helped me immeasuarbably over the past year. Thank you!!!!!
