      I used to snap freeze (put into the liquid nitrogen) tissues that were sent to the pathology labs in the hospital. Of course, only people that donated their tissues to the bank had this done. We didn’t go round taking peoples tissue samples.
      This was filed away, until a researcher needed access to the samples.
