[Histonet] Processing sequence

[Roger Brown]

Hello Histonet community,

We recently obtained a refurbished Tissue Tek VIP 2000 tissue processor and
now wish to set up a few programs for processing. The operating manual lists
a sequence of fluids, times, and V/P cycles etc. for one generic program. I
wish ask if anyone out there might share a processing sequence that would be
appropriate for processing rat whole skin samples? One item I am
particularly curious about is with which steps (other than wax) should the
V/P cycles be used.

Thank you in advance for reply.
