I would remove the tape with acetone and clear in xylene, then recoverslip with conventional coverslips. I've seen problems with refractivity with the tape, anyway.

All the tapes have been loosened from the slides with the tissue attacked to it. The tape has also curled (arched). What is the best method for reattaching the tapes to the slides so they can be viewed again. Or can it? The pathologists are really upset over these slides as they are for continuing education and cannot be replaced.
