[Histonet] VIP Routine tissue protocols

[Clare Thornton]

For those of you running VIP processors, what sort of protocol are you running your large routine tissue (i.e. breast, colon, uterus, placenta, etc.)?  Also, how long are your routine tissues fixing in formalin before going on the processor?  We are having issues with underprocessed tissue.  We would like to compare our current protocols with other labs also running VIP processors.

thank you, and have a great weekend!
