[Histonet] Microwave Processing

[Campbell, Tasha]

What does a line conditioner do? The company was bought out recently and basically has no employees so I have no one to help me.

I don't know what else it would be.  We moved to a new building so I don't know if the power could be stronger and its changing the way it processes or what.  I have tried messing with the program times and temps but I cannot figure it out.  My blocks keep having what looks like knife lines but it's not the microtomes. The only change has been moving into a brand new building.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks.
