Under separate cover I am sending an article I wrote on the subject.

Hi to all,

I am a student doing my thesis on rapid tissue processing so as to
eliminate xylene and reduce processing time.  I found some studies which
make use of mineral oil as one of the reagents in microwave tissue
processing protocols.  Can anyone provide me with information regarding
its exact use and its effect on the tissue. Thanks a billion.

Steph.
