[Histonet] new prostate problem!

[Nick and Amanda]

Hi!

We have recently come up against a staining issue where our prostate cores have patches which are not staining.  Our Pathologist tells us this is common in a particular High grade diagnosis so this is a problem when it is happening in all prostate cases..  It does not seem to be affecting other tissue staining (perhaps the odd one! no examples could be provided!! Could it possibly be drying out of the cores prior to being placed in formalin??

Any Ideas welcome

Just not sure!
