Hi Tampa Supervisor,
Welcome to the Histonet. Oh we just hate our 6 packs, too. Presently we cut 3 
levels per block and at each level take an unstained slide section from the 
same ribbon as the H&E. So 6 slides per block with 6 sites per patient equals 
36 slides per patient. I guess you make out the best with only 30/patient. So 
far our worst day had 7, 6 packs totaling 252 slides just for 7 cases. Yes, 
very few high molecular weight cytokeratins are ordered but the paths. won't 
change their requests.
Best of luck.
