[Histonet] tissue processing problem

2011-07-14 Thread Carol Bryant
We have several tissue blocks with cells that have shrunken. The pathologist called them shrink o cytes. The tissue affected is mostly small gastric polyps. This sounds like a dehydration issue. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Carol Carol Bryant, CT (ASCP)

You are right, it is most likely a dehydration issue. Try to start with 70EthOL and increase gradually until 100EthOL René J. --- On Thu, 7/14/11, Carol Bryant cb...@lexclin.com wrote: From: Carol Bryant cb...@lexclin.com Subject: [Histonet] tissue processing problem To: histonet
