Hello,
I'm glad that you already solved the problem your way.
I didn't read your first post, but we had exactly the same problem (and
we're also using cover plates). This artifact is very likely caused by tiny
air bubbles which are trapped under the cover plate. The crucial step is
when you drip

Hi
Looking at the images this appears to be the prozone effect which is caused by
the primary antibody concentration being too high and has been well reported in
both immunohistochemistry, immunology and serology articles. Do a google serch
for prozone phenomenon and you will find an explanat
It looks like bubble trapped between the slide and coverplate. Are you using
sufficient surfactant? That can help, but any of the "cap gap" methodologies
lend themselves to this problem.
Rinse your slides very thoroughly in buffer with plenty of surfactant before
loading them on the instrument
Those appear in all 14 slides I stained - I doubt to have made the same
mistake of leaving bubbles fourteen times when mounting them.
That my friend is the result of a air bubble on the section. If it had
been unremoved xylene the hematoxylin would have been absent as well.
