[Histonet] re/prostate quesitons

[Joyce Cline]

1.	We do not have the same problem with our breast core biopsies.
2.	We may have washing on block A and B but not on C,D or F and
washing on E, H, etc.
3.	The biopsies have no drying artifact on the edges.
4.	We use a low temp wax, Blue Ribbon paraffin for processing and
embedding. Our processor is set at 57.
5.	The tissue sections fall off during H&E staining.
6.	We do not use sponges, we use screened cassettes.
7.	The Stay on is used alone, not with the charged slides.
 
Our pathologist that is our prostate specialist thinks each one of us is
doing something different when we cut. We have all discussed this matter
and can find no 
differences when we cut.
