• Remember that minor color changes can occur in LP C cassettes
if these are exposed to reagents that contain Picric acid, e. g.
Bouin's fixative.
• Remember that text imprinted on Leica LPC cassettes can become
illegible or be lost if these are exposed for long periods to solu-
tions that contain strong acids. Decalcification processes of tis-
sue in Leica LPC cassettes that involve strong acids, such as nitric
acids, must be checked by the users before implementation.
