Abstract

This article describes a simple device that enables sectioning of an unfixed unfrozen fresh rat brain corresponding in position with the de Groote's stereotaxic coordinate systems. The construction of this device allows adjustment of the thickness of the individual brain slices and, thus, facilitates quick and precise removal of whole discrete brain particles or nuclei from a minimal number of slices. Adaptation of this device for other stereotaxic brain atlases is easily possible.
