Abstract
Care in collection, storage and transportation of breast carcinoma tissue being sent for cytoplasmic estrogen receptor (O.R) estimations is essential. Failure to observe precise directions may lead to discrepancies that throw doubt on the accuracy of the estimation.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
