[Histonet] processing problem with fatty specimens

[Margiotta, Michele]

Hi All,

My Pathologist showed me several slides from the past few weeks that have a strange appearance in the fatty areas.  The fat cells are squished together and don't have the open areas they usually have.  Any ideas as to what is happening? And we haven't changed our processing schedule.  Thanks!
