Re: [Histonet] Slide storage

From:Rene J Buesa



It is very unlikely that either the humidity or a 55ºF will cause the fading. That is ussually associated with improperly treated slides, including sections bued in ammonia water and later poorly wahed, or a change in the mounting medium (too acid).
  Those could be your "culprits" but not temp. or humidity.

  Is ok to store H & E, Pap, immuno, special stained slides in a 55 degree (F) room with no more than 50% humidity? We have had problems with slides fading in the past.
