[Method of obtaining semi-thin sections from paraffin blocks in the ultratome].

A method for attaching paraffine blocks with tissue in ultratomes LKB for the preparation of semi-thin sections is proposed. Paraffin is placed into gelatin capsules and to it a paraffin block with tissue is attached. This permits to place into the block-holder not the block but a capsule with paraffin. The advantage of this method is that the block with tissue is not deformed and is firmly held by the blockholder.
