[Histonet] HELP! Removing tissue from heat-fixed slides.

[Carmen Leschuk]

I have a problem and need some quick advice!  My Pathologist was going
to send a liver bx block out for copper studies, but my tech accidently
cut extra sections on the block  and there is no tissue left. The
paraffin embedded tissue is needed for the copper study. The unstained
liver bx sections were also placed on charged slides and heat-fixed.
Does ANYONE know of a way I can get these sections off of the slide, if
I can get them off, I could centrifuge and place the button in paraffin.
Please let me know ASAP! Thanks!
