Hi All...Again. I guess I have a lot of questions lately. I have asked this
before but I would like to ask it again. What are people doing for QA/QC? I
have been asked by management to write a QA manual. I have some ideas but not
really sure where to start. Thanks in advance for any input.
I am a MLT registry eligible technician. I received my MLT training in the
military. I would like to get into histology. I am looking for an opportunity
to gain experience, either through working or and internship. I have no prior
histology training but I am eager to learn and I am a fast le
Embedding frozen tissue in Pwax is very possible, Tomasz.
If your tissue has been frozen NOT using OCT, just place the frozen tissue into
acetone that has been cooled to -20C.

Agitate frequently, gently.

thanks to the reply.
some antigens will be damaged by PFA fixation and can not be retreieval.
the shock frozen section with acetone is of quite bad tissue quality. therefore
I am trying alcohol!

I agree with Paul Monfils, there needs to be fixation prior to embedding in
paraffin plus the tissue needs to be infiltrated or the paraffin will not
penetrate the frozen tissue. Even if you are not looking for infiltration, the
hot wax will eventually harden and the wet tissue will fall out or

Did you try Googling it?

I assume you mean the tissue was frozen without fixation, not that you want to
put it into paraffin without fixation? No tissue will withstand paraffin
processing without fixation. The best way to turn a frozen tissue into a
paraffin embedded tissue is to drop the frozen tissue (either plain or

I would too if I was misdiagnosed or otherwise the victim of malpractice
involving incorrect/erroneous histopathology. Don't disrespect such victims

Greetings TF:
Good luck freezing a brain that is full of alcohol! Have you checked the
freezing point of alcohol?
Why are you doing this?
Immersing a whole brain in 70% alcohol, why??
30% sucrose is a cryoprotectant so the brain is not full of holes from
ice crystals.Alcohol defeats this purpo
Hi All,
I am just wanting to get an idea of how many of you charge law firms or
legal gathering sites for making copies of pathology reports and sending
slides and blocks. It seems that people are suing for any and everything
they can these days. I would also like to know what people are charging
Hi, i dont want to use PFA for the brain fixation (rat).
Now I tried to perfuse the rat with saline, followed with 70% alcohol. Then I
do post-fixation at room temperature for 24 hours.
I also tried saline perfusion, then I directly put the whole brain into 70%
alcohol.
Is this fine?
Also, for d

Wouldn't the molten paraffin would melt the frozen tissue? LOL

why would you want to do this? - the water contained in the fresh tissue
will not "mix" with the paraffin wax. There would be little purpose in
trying.

Hello,
is there any good method for embeeding fresh frozen tissue (without any
fixation) in paraffin?
I would be grateful for ANY suggestions.
