Technical Abstract: Midsol 50 wheat starch and 5% Cloisite clay with or without the addition of glycerin were used to prepare biopolymers in a twin-screw extruder. Early trials of sectioning the unembedded biopolymer resulted in the immediate absorption of water and subsequent dissolution of the sample due to the the great hydrophilic properties of our biopolymer. Collecting of dry sections without benefit of a water bath was impossible because the tiny fragments could not be collected with any degree of precision. Cryo-sectioning was tried on a single sample and yielded good results. However, because the equipment was not readily available, a method of embedding and sectioning the bioploymers was needed in order to get reproducible results. The trials included the use of standard recommended procedures for Epon, Spurr's, Durcupan and LR White resins. The standard procedures produced inconsistent results. The successful trial for all samples included the use of Spurr's and infiltration and embedding under partial vacuum (0.5 atm).
