Otis,
You will see an amazing difference in your tissue specimens if you process in
a laboratory microwave instead of a routine tissue processor. Using
microwave processing procedures the exposure times in alcohol and paraffin
are greatly reduced and clearants are not used at all. The tissues are
normally much easier to section and in most cases you won't need to soak
them.
Laboratory microwaves suitable for processing are distributed by several
different manufacturers (Thermo-Shandon, Richard Allan Scientific, Hacker
Instruments and TBS, Inc). I would be happy to answer any questions you
might have.
