What are the Consequences of Improper Temperature Control?
Improper temperature control can lead to several issues:
Artifacts: Temperature fluctuations can cause artifacts such as cracks, folds, and uneven staining. Degradation: High temperatures can cause tissue degradation and loss of antigenicity, affecting immunohistochemistry results. Enzyme Activity: Enzymatic reactions, such as those in in situ hybridization, can be compromised by incorrect temperatures.
