[Histonet] retaining cut slides to keep or not to keep

[Rachel M Gonzalez]

Hi everyone,

I work in a research lab and have a number of slides that have been cut by
the previous person in this position. Several slides are over one year.  I
would like to know what is the standard practice for keeping cut slides? I
have used them and they stain just fine but the question was brought up in
a lab meeting.

How long can you keep unbaked slides? Room temperature/4C
