Isn't it better to generate more blocks when so many cores are put in one vial? Therefore, the billing would be for the amount of blocks created correct?

It looks like a petri dish and has 12 individual wells in it, each one labelled with the location from the prostate. We are going to trial them but I would like some opinions on them. We currently get 10 to 12 bottles per case. So, all the bx's could go in this one container.
