Lynne,
    Why not use 11 cassettes and one large formalin container?

Subject: [Histonet] Containers with wells for multiple specimens

Good Morning All,
I am looking for a type of specimen container that has multiple wells in
it that can be filled with a fixative.  Our urologists will be starting
to do 11 biopsies on each patient and they would like a container such
as the one I just described.  My pathologist thinks that such a thing
exists.  I am aware of the cassettes that have six partitions for
biopsies, but not of a specimen container. =20

I appreciate any help you can give me!

Thanks,
