Abstract
A mounting method utilizing an indium substrate is described for preparing freeze-dried cryosections of biological tissue for ion microscopic analysis. Using this procedure, a qualitative comparison between cryosection, conventional chemical, and freeze-substitution specimen preparations is made with rat liver tissue. Practical ion yield variations in cryosections are found to be minimal (+/- 13% relative standard deviation) in tissue-containing areas of rat liver and small intestine.
