ResumoThis chapter is devoted to explain how to handle with brain specimens to get cryostat, paraffin, or floating vibratome sections and the way they are processed during ISH and IHC. The procedure to be selected is related to the study aim, general and rapid mapping, or detailed and high resolution analysis. We likewise place emphasis on how to block (embed) and prepare the tissue blocks for sectioning, insuring that optimal section planes are obtained.
