Hello, Another question, Is anyone using the Pathos system to process
animal tissues? I would really appreciate any comments good/ and or bad

Hello, Our Surgical Pathology Department has been using the Pathos
processor. I work in research and we have begun to have issues with the
tissue falling off of the slide after pretreatment for IHC. Has anyone
else noticed this happening? The tissue is much harder in the block than
the standard method of processing. Is this normal? Does that have
anything to do with the tissue falling off the slides?
Thanks in advance.
