Learning Objectives for this checklist: Audience: Scientists that have a basic knowledge of tissue preservation and the methodology for using a conventional tissue processor. Action: Anticipate and consider pre-analytical and processing factors that create tissue processing artifacts. Criteria: Examples of tissue slides without artifacts and well-preserved morphology. Examples of tissue slides that have artifacts and/or poor morphology due to poor practices, over or under processing. Degree: Examples and explanation of factors that create suboptimal results that can be avoided by identifying the root cause of artifacts. Download Checklist Now!
