Yes, if the stain can wait get some mount quick from Newcomer. There is a good chance the tissue will fall off if you proceed with the tissue on regular slides. I would wait until I get the mount quick.
Everyone else reading this should order a tube now for emergencies. You will find yourself in this position at some point and if you have the stuff on hand, it's no problem. I just used it today to transfer cells from a cytocentrifuge slide to a charged slide for FISH. It saved the patient a re-biopsy.
