Good Histology Tissue Processing

Tissue processing is an step in histological and histopathological analysis. Paraffin processing of tissue involves several steps like fixation, dehydration, clearing and wax infiltration before embedding the tissue in paraffin wax. The tissue needs to be incubated for a specific period of time in the respective series of solutions which requires attentiveness for a longer period of time (12 hours). This leica automatic tissue processor takes care of that. So it is important to schedule the processing time. You can leave tissues in the processor and schedule a different start time.
