IMD™ utilizes Sakura Tissue Tek VIP and Leica Polaris processors with a variety of protocols designed for the processing of various tissue types. These protocols were validated for small biopsies in concordance with the highly specific requirements for Breast Cancer Sample Protocols.
Our dehydration methodology requires the use of ethanol, xylene, and paraffin (for infiltration).
Embedding is performed with the usage of Sakura Tissue Tek and Medite embedding centers.
