[Histonet] End time for fixation of breast tissue

[Glenn Hauck]

Is there someone out there that can help me find out if there is any value in recording the end time for fixation of breast tissue in 10% formalin?

We at present record the devitalization time, the time tissue is put into fixative and the time the tissue is cut into and exposed to 10% formalin as well as the time the processor is started

Thanks
