    Formaldehyde fixatives have traditionally been used to preserve tissues as they impart excellent morphological preservation. Formaldehyde fixes tissue by cross linking, a process which can reduce the antigenicity of tissue and weakens the intensity of immunohistochemical stains. Preliminary studies have

    In 1987, the Formaldehyde Standard became law in the United States, alerting laboratory workers to the potential carcinogenicity of formaldehyde. As a result, a variety of proprietary fixatives were developed for use in surgical pathology. To assess histomorphology with different

    Histochoice is a proprietary nontoxic, non-cross-linking fixative designed by the manufacturer to replace formaldehyde based fixation protocols. We compared Histochoice and formalin fixation for several cartilaginous tissues including, articular and growth plate cartilage, meniscus and intervertebral disc. The tissues were
