Why are paraffin blocks immersed in ice water before sectioning?
To promote good ribbon generation, the paraffin block needs to be sufficiently hard to enable the sections to be cut on the microtome. This is routinely achieved by placing the paraffin blocks on ice, cooling both the tissue and the wax to a similar consistency and swelling the tissue to make it easier to section.
What is the paraffin method of sectioning?
Paraffin sectioning is the procedure of cutting thin slices of tissue that has been dehydrated and infiltrated with wax using specialized equipment. This tissue is then embedded in wax before being cut on a microtome.
How do you section paraffin embedded tissue?
Clamp the paraffin-embedded specimen on a rotary microtome and place the blade in a blade holder. Turn the handwheel and section the specimen. Transfer the paraffin sectioned ribbon to the 38.5 C warm water bath. Pick up the sections onto the microscope slide from the water surface after unfolding.
What is section cutting of paraffin embedded tissue?
Insert the paraffin block and orientate so the blade will cut straight across the block. Carefully, approach the block with the blade and cut a few thin sections to ensure the positioning is correct. Adjust if necessary. Trim the block to expose the tissue surface to a level where a representative section can be cut.
What is paraffin embedded sections?
Paraffin embedding is a standard technique used in clinical and research laboratories to create a formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) block of tissue. Formalin-fixed tissue undergoes tissue processing and then is embedded in paraffin (wax) to create a FFPE block or paraffin block.
How will you prepare a block of tissue for sectioning?
Trim the block to expose the tissue surface to a level where a representative section can be cut. Trimming is normally done at a thickness of 10-30 m. Cut sections at a thickness of about 4-5 m (you will probably need to discard the first few sections as they are likely to contain holes caused by trimming).
How thin should paraffin embedded materials be sectioned?
Sectioning Protocol: Section paraffin blocks at the desired thickness (usually 4-5 m) on a microtome and float on a 40C water bath containing distilled water.
