 note = {application/pdf, Very recently we developed a new embedding medium, "Shiojirin-E", made chiefly of cellulose nitrate (Kawakami et al. 1995)^&;t;1'2)>. During the course of its development, we noted that cellulose nitrate would be a very suitable embedding medium for morphometric analysis, especially because of its low and constant rate of contraction. But the highviscosity of this medium resulted in a very slow rate of infiltration. Therefore we sought to develop a new, better histological embedding medium for morphometric analysis based on information on the methanol-cellulose nitrate method by Seki (1937)^<3)>. After trial and error, we succeeded in our goal : The composition of the medium is as follows : cellulose nitrate 15.0g, methanol 78.6g, and others 6.4g (total of 100.00g). When the specimens are not so big, we can easily get 3-5 micron-thick sections like paraffin sections with complete non-contractibility. We believe that this new methanol-cellulose nitrate medium will be useful especially for histological morphometrical analysis.},
