Claim 7:
8. A method of treating a paraffin embedded biological specimen, comprising:
obtaining a microscope slide having a longitudinal axis;
floating at least one paraffin embedded biological specimen onto the microscope slide with a floatation liquid;
obtaining a slide support with a longitudinal axis;
positioning the microscope slide with the paraffin embedded biological specimen floated thereon on the slide support so the longitudinal axis of the microscope slide is substantially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the slide support whereby the paraffin embedded specimen is positioned in close proximity to the longitudinal axis of the slide support; and
rotating the slide support about the longitudinal axis of the slide support so the microscope slide and the paraffin embedded biological specimen rotate about the longitudinal axis of the slide support at a rate and for a time period sufficient to cause substantially all the floatation liquid disposed between the microscope slide and the paraffin embedded biological specimen to be removed from between the microscope slide and the paraffin embedded biological specimen.
