Abstract: The standard for tissue embedding is to ensure tissue samples are appropriately oriented and embedded on the “cut edge” or flattest edge available. Histology laboratories that receive mostly soft tissues prefer a “softer” paraffin as opposed to laboratories that receive hard specimens, such as skin, which would require a “harder” paraffin.
