Subject: [Histonet] Biopsy Sponges Melting in Processor


Morning Histonetters,

I was wondering if anyone has ever come across having their biopsy sponges 
melt during their routine processing cycle, and if so, what was the cause.
We 
use Fisher blue biopsy pads and run a routine 12-hour overnight cycle. Any
input 
is great appreciated.
