To guarantee the
correctness of each tissue spot on the AccuMax Tissue
Microarray,
1. Every 20 slides
and the last slides from a block
are H&E stained and read by a certificated
pathologist
2. Randomly selected
H&E stained are re-
read by another pathologist
3. All Tissue Microarrays
are individually examined by well trained technologists
before packing to guarantee the quality of tissue spots 4. AccuMax
Arraywith below 5% core loss
only is provided.
