Dear Histonetters,

  We have a pathologist that is doing a research project on extremely
bloody placenta material. We are having trouble cutting them. (yes, some
are unfixed and cases are several years old) Any suggestions on how to cut
these? We are having difficulty with them staying on the slides. Most are
falling off even before the IHC staining is done. Thanks for you help in
advance.
