Has anyone out there had any issues with tissue falling off of the CAP slides 
for ER/PgR surveys?

I recently found out that they are embedding their cores in a paraffin with a 
much higher

melting point than ours. Could the incomplete removal of paraffin cause the 
tissue to fall

off the slides during target retrieval?

They are stating that any detachment of the cores are dependent on the 
conditions of the retrieval and

not on any difference in the tissue paraffin.

Any feedback on this would be much appreciated.



Thanks,



Brandy Burnett, HTL QIHC(ASCP)
