Histonet:

I am looking for a rapid fixative for fine needle
aspirations which will:

1) avoid formalin pigment artefact (the fluids are often
    very hemorrhagic)

and

2) quickly harden up the spun down cellular
    component of the aspirate (cell button) so that
    we can process it the same day

Thanks in advance

Colin in London, Ontario, Canada
