[Histonet] Processing Veterinary Samples

[Miranda Giorgi]

Hello,

Our AP lab was recently approached by a Veterinary Pathologist to process, embed, and cut H&E slides of their postmortem animal samples.  If we consider taking on this work are there any concerns with variation in processing or safety protocols we might need to be aware of with regards to veterinary samples compared to human samples?

Any information or experience you can share would be appreciated.  Thank you!
