[Histonet] reprocessing tissue

[Curt Tague]

I have a problem... some tissue got processed very poorly, there was water in the system somewhere and a few blocks just look burnt.. the nuclei are faint and cloudy, no detail at all. I've tried the process of rehydrating with the 30% formaldehyde, glycerol and sodium acetate solution but they still process poorly, come out very brittle and just don't look good under the scope.

Does anyone have a magic bullet to salvage these specimens? I can send a pic directly if it helps.

Thanks,
Curt
