Microtome cut tissue sections are mounted directly onto a film base by a method and apparatus which eliminates the usual interim manual lifting of the cut sections from the blade and the usual water bath and manual floating steps. A microtome trough filled with a liquid receives the cut tissue sections directly from the microtome knife. The sections are floated across the trough and into contact with a film which is passed through the trough. The film with the sections adhered thereto are then fed into a reel.
