[Histonet] RE: processing biopsies on VIP

[Ian R Bernard]

Check your protocol.  Heat  or temp is a factor and length of time in alcohol. We have P/V for the 10 % NBF and paraffin infiltration.

Subject: [Histonet] processing biopsies on VIP

Hi there,
Does anyone use P/V on their biopsy runs on the Tissue-Tek VIP 5?  We're having really dry biopsies, and I think this could be why....
Thanks,
Lacie
