Method for the removal of selected cells from cytological smear preparations for transmission electron microscopy

AUTOR(ES)

Mather, Jean

RESUMO

The method described depends on fixing additional cytology smear preparations with glutaraldehyde to be used, if needed. Removal of cells from the slide makes use of partially polymerised resins in the usual way but a paper marker is used to localise the area in the resin block which contains the cells to be examined. Slides are placed in a freezing cabinet to facilitate easy separation of the resin block.
