Yes, the paper is there, however, I see they addressed the fixation time
in NBF for er/pr but I do not see where they talk about the time
changing for her2. So does this mean that I have to fix some of the
tumor for her2 for only 48 hours, while the er/pr can be fixed 72 hours?

just came through all in a tizzy about it.  just wondering if anyone
else has seen it.  the fixation times were also suppose to change,  to
72 hrs fixation for breast.
