[Histonet] paraffin temp-processing

[Noelle Linke]

Hi all,

We are using Parapast X-tra on the Peloris at 65C (factory default), and I am thinking this is just way too hot (X-tra has a melting point of 52C).  Leica of course will not commit to an opinion.  Is anyone else using paraplast x-tra on their Peloris?

Thank you,
Noëlle
