Dear Lauren, Please leave samples in formalin for about 48 hours. Some tissues will be recovered others may be a bit more difficult to recover. Then reprocess after the soak and see what happens.

Hello Histonet, We have issues- please advise! Long story short- some tissues did not get processed over the weekend, they went through the process but were not submerged in ANY (we think) of the reagents. Now they are shriveled up and brittle (they are intestinal). Is there any way to save them? Can we re-process them? Has anyone ever had this problem and had success recovering?
