HI Paula,

I've no experience with the Bayer coverslipper, but cornflaking to me is is
associated with incomplete dehydration prior to coverslipping.
Cheers

Hello everyone -

Just a quick question concerning the Tissue-Tek Coverslipper.  IT seems
that
our Cytology slides still have a great deal of "cornflaking"  even though
there appears to be adequate drops of xylene dispensing from the
coverslipper. Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone know of a
solution?  Thanks to all - any information is greatly appreciated!
