Nuclear bubbling continues to be a problem with our prostate needle
biopsies.  Prior consensus of the Histonetters was overwhelmingly -
Excessive Heat.  We adjusted the drying oven for slides, so excessive heat
shouldn't be our problem.  Paraffin temperatures are the norm.   I heard
through the (pathologist) grapevine, that someone said recycled xylene can
cause this.   Can this be so?   (We do used recycled xylene).   How/Why?  Is
there a solution?
Any other ideas?.......And why so selective with pnb's ?  Is this a male
plot?
