[Histonet] prostate and breast core bx's
I have personally used eosin in the 95% step of the processor for years and it really helps with pinking up small cores and prostate bx's without having any effect on the final H&E. We used the premade RA eosin. I have used about 10-20ml in the Tissue Tek VIP which I believe? is about a gallon or so of 95% in the carboy. I started off with a little every time I would change the processor and gradually increased with no complaints from my pathologists. Your embedder will thank you.
