If it's antigenicity you're concerned with (we had a 48 hour max fix time) - set your processor to transfer the tissues to 70% alcohol and hold them there until time to process for Monday a.m. Ta-daa!

I am concerned about tissue sitting in the processors (in formalin) for that long. What are other labs doing?
