[Histonet] Controls with patient specimen on same slide

[Setlak, Lisa]

We often do the same or use separate slides. We used to use the slides with the designated "control" area but had some problems with the reagents getting to all areas of the slide.

Hi Toni,

We put the control on the same slide and after it's stained and coverslipped
we draw a line to seperate the control and patient tissue with each side of
the line having either a "C" or "P" written on it.
