Subject: Autofluorescence

I work in a bone lab with undecalcified specimens embedded in MMA. We have
recently experienced autofluorescence in our unstained samples (thin
sections), which interferes with our analysis. Has anyone else experienced
this? What is the cause, and how can it be eliminated?
Thanks for your help.
