In London, at the Hammersmith, we used to do 3 on two slides, one H+E and
the other spare.

We cut 3 levels, 40 microns apart, all mounted on the same slide

I work in a GI lab we cut one slide with four sections the first two sections
are placed on the top half of the slide then turn ten more and then add it to
the first two sections. If recut's are required we pick up the first few
sections depending on the pathoIogist request. I hope this helps.
We do 3 levels on all..taking hp immuno on 2nd level of gastrics and a couple
of extra on esophs. ( in case of alcian blues or pas/fungus).

Not that I know, but beware: not because the GI biopsies are small it means
that they can be fixed for less time. The fixation mechanism with formalin
(penetration → binding → cross linking = fixation) is independent of the size
of the sample. It is a time related event dependent on the chemistr
I think you're spot on with the slower cutting speed. Too fast and they
"chatter" like crazy.

Dear Andria,
This sounds like over-processing. If you are using a regular processing
schedule it is for sure. At Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane we used a
2 hour 45 minute program with 15 minutes in each station. We still soaked
the blocks in water before icing and cutting. Sometimes we had
We have all stations set at 10 minutes, except for the last xylene and
the last two paraffins - which are 15 minutes each.
We actually have the two formalins at one hour and one and a half hours,
in case someone mistakenly puts the big tissue on the bx processor - at
least they will be well-fixed b
2.5 hours
