Hi, 
is anyone using an Enegy Beam microwave to fix fatty tissue. I found an
article in the AJCP that says for fixation, to microwave for 10 minutes at
70 degrees in formalin. Although it says all tissues should be nuked like
this, I'm trying to find something that works well for really fatty tissue.
thanks in advance,
