Abstract
Systems and methods for acquiring laser capture microdissection samples are disclosed. A method of making a laser capture microdissection consumable includes providing a transfer film carrier having a substrate surface; and fabricating a laser capture microdissection transfer film on said substrate surface, wherein forming includes hot vacuum baking said laser capture microdissection transfer film. The systems and methods facilitate quick and accurate laser capture microdissection while simultaneously minimizing contamination.
