[Histonet] processor died overnight

[Rene J Buesa]

In 100% EthOL the tissues are completely "salvaged" and you can prepare the program to continue the steps until melted paraffin.If there are delicate tissue perhaps they will be "over-dried" but that is easily "compensated" during microtomy.René

 Hello Histoworld,

I came in this morning to find that the processor died halfway through process last night. The tissues are in 100% ETOH exactly half point. We do have a back- up processor. In your professional experiences, would these tissues be salvageable? Could I create a new program on the backup processor that finishes the process from that point and transfer the tissues over?

Thanks.
