Overnight fixation is best if possible. 12-24 hours provides an optimal
environment for IHC staining, for rush cases 6 hours is recommended. It all
depends on the thickness of the tissue, large excisions and breast cases
require a longer fixation time.

But with that, you can consider formalin time after grossing, and on p;rocessor
to equal those times.

Too general of a question. What type of biopsy? Minimum of 6 hours, maximum of
72 hours for breast.

Good morning everyone,
I have a question on biopsy formalin fixation time. How long should we
let the biopsies set and fix in formalin before we gross/process them? You
response is greatly appreciated.
