Dear Leon,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">With a bit of practice and well-sharpened Dumont #5 forceps, a person can cut around 200 caps in an hour. I suggest that if you want to get many hundreds of caps that you simply have a cap-cutting jamboree - not so much biting the bullet as having
a party. Seriously. I think you’ll have no problem getting volunteers and (COVID, etc. permitting), I’d be happy to come over myself.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Best wishes,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Jeremy</div>

<div class="">Dear Colleagues !</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I have a few general questions and tried posting to Slack "Xenopus Community" without success. People - Slack is a nice way to keep discussions going, please use it !
<br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Has someone worked out a way to make animal caps en masse ? I did hear the gastromaster legend and even obtained one with a few tips … but it does not really work in my hands. Any other devices ? Please do not tell me to just bite the bullet.
I'd like to be able to cut many hundreds. <br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> There are a couple of animal cap instructional videos with forceps but I know many people use other techniques. Would be nice to have more videos.
<br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Does someone have a protocol and experience for blood perfusion in Xenopus ?
<br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class=""> THANK YOU <br class="">
