A block of polymeric material 12 comprises label layers 14 and interposed non-label layers 16, each label layer containing a different known concentration of a label material. The block can be sliced by a microtome 18 into thin section each of which is useful as a standard for analysis e.g. in autoradiography. Preferred label materials are radioactive isotopes e.g. 3-H and 14-C; other label materials include metals and fluorescent materials. |
