[Histonet] Ventana IHC/ recycled reagents

[Kuhnla, Melissa]

Anyone running IHC on Ventana platforms? Do you run patient samples on
the same slide as control tissue? Do you have problems with sections
adhering to the slides?  The largest culprit for us seems to be
small/fine needle core biopsies.  Any insight into why this shape is
problematic?  Over-processed maybe?

Is anyone using recycled alcohols or Xylene in their tissue processors?
Do you find this to be problematic?  

Thank you,
