[Histonet] Processing FFPE tissue without alcohol

2016-03-26 Thread Wanda Shotsberger Gray via Histonet
While the tissue will still go through alcohol, have you considered preserving the fat with osmium tetroxide prior to routine processing? This turns the fat black, but it is retained in the tissue. Hi Histonet, is there a way to process tissue for paraffin embedding without using alcohol?
