: [Histonet] RE: New Cap Guidelines for Her2 and ER/PR
Hi,
I'm going to have to disagree with this approach. Lumping all specimens
into the same procedure (fixation/processing time) is in no way a step
toward individualized care that is so often discussed. Doing this ignores
the basic fundam
to
be entirely honest staining times in many cases. I fear you may be
oversimplifying the situation and calling it standardization.
All the best,
Amos

How much time is the tissue in formalin prior to going in the processor?
Your total time in formalin can not exceed 48 hr. And you will still
need to validate your process if you

The time required in NBF is not 8 hours only, that is exactly what the
regulations are trying to avoid, i.e. incomplete fixation.

For the weekend, we have our processor set for 36 hours in formalin and
then a hold in 70%. This allows for complete fixation and cuts down on
prolonged time in 70%
