[Histonet] shrinkage during IHC

2010-11-06 Thread zodiac29


To All, 

We are a lab that sends our specimens out for IHC and have just switched to 
another reference laboratory for these services. Our pathologist is saying that 
the tissue looks shrunk on the IHC slides, yet the slides that I process (HE, 
and special stains)are fine. Does anyone know what is causing this? The 
reference lab said it could be the type of slides that I use to mount the 
sections we send to them. My knowledge in IHC is limited. Also, if this helps, 
they are FFPE tissue.   

Thanks for your help

Jenny
