[Histonet] Microwave processing

[Webb, Dorothy L]

We were having problems with "friable" prostate needle bx.'s and often
uneven staining when using our microwave processor.  We were sent a
sample of an "EBS" product called "polar sheets" that absorb some of the
enery when the tissues are in paraffin until it achieves the higher
temperature.  This product is incredible..our slides from the microwave
processing look better than routine processing stained slides. If anyone
needs any information or further testimonial info on this product,
contact Phil McArdle with Energy Beam Sciences or I will be happy to
assist!!  IT'S A MIRACLE!!!!!!!
