Abstract
- The construction and operation of a simple device for serially mounting small Epon sections for light microscopy are described. This device allows the middle portion of the slide to serve both as a shallow reservoir behind the knife edge for flotation of serially oriented sections, and as a miniature hot plate for the subsequent flattening and adhesion of the sections. The advantages of this device, which gave consistently good results with Epon embedded Argas (Persicargas) arboreus tick tissues, are discussed.
