Resumen:
Plant anatomists are recurrently looking for safer and faster methods to improve the observations of plants tissues, searching for images with better resolution. Nevertheless, some plant materials are difficult to handle due to their consistency, such as those with very hard tissue or with a combination of soft and hard tissues (e. g. parenchyma and sclerenchyma). In these cases, softening techniques have been developed [1]. But they do not completely solve this problem since their success depends on the thickness of the plant organ. To find a solution to this limitation, a standard procedure of metallography is proposed, as an alternative, for the study of plant organs.
