Recently, someone mentioned putting a library of protocols online, perhaps in
the HistoNet archives. I'd like to second that emotion if its possible to make
happen... What a great resource that would be!

Have you tried to embed your cell pellets into a tissue microarray? Two
companies I would recommend:
www.arraymold.com
www.beecherinstruments.com
Two of the best TMA products on the market.

Please, stop spamming this list.
Comment if you know something useful. Otherwise keep it.
I don't mind what you had for breakfast in June 1st last year or your
opinion on my clothes' colour.
Believe it or not, there IS a real life ( link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_life_(reality) ), and maybe you should
check it out - it has way more to offer than waiting for responses to
mock about.
Thanks.

Fellow histology and related fields professionals,
I'm not opening this. From a call name of "u know
(u_deserve_2_k...@yahoo.com)." The last time I opened something like this, from a
name like this, I ended up owing money for Viagra treatments for Panda bears or something
like that. It may be real, but it probably is spam. There...has been...a lot...of
it...recently!
By the way, there is no such thing as a "Virus-proof LINK!" Not sure? Just
Google it.
If you need Spyware or Antivirus software, check your IT department. Also, CNET has free downloads of AdAware, or AVG antivirus 8.
And now for a joke (I think we all need it); A physician is doing his rounds and a nurse stops him in the
hallway, "Doctor, can you sign these reports?" "Fine" he says and proceeds to pull out a
rectal thermometer from his coat pocket. He looks at it in disbelief and exclaims, "Darn it! Some a$$
has my pen!"

Dear Listers,
If you ever opened any strange attachments from this list, you should really
consider scanning your Hard Disk for spyware. There is a great free anti-spyware
program we use, which you can get at http://DELETED<----that is a virus-proof

Thank you to everyone who responded!! I was given the cell pellets already in
the matrix so I only had to process!! It was easier than the mouse tissues!!
Since we do so few 20-40 at a time I do everything by hand...no automation in
our lab!!

Formula 83 is a naphthenic hydrocarbon that cannot be used with coverslippers,
is recyclable and while some people have been using it for more than 20 years,
others find it irritant.

HI all.
I have searched the Histonet archives and found a lot of very positive reviews
regarding Formula 83. I am wondering if anyone has encountered any issues with
using Formula 83 on a stainer and then xylene on a tape coverslipper. Are there
any miscibility issues? Are you soaking in xylene prior to tape coverslipping
required? Any helpful hints/tips/tricks?
Thank you in advance.

I used to run a negative control per case or per block within any given case
when doing IHC, but not for reagents.

I have a question concerning ANP.22570 on the CAP checklist. Could you all
tell me how you are handling
negative controls for IHC staining? The question actually states (and I've
confirmed with CAP) that we should be running two types of negative controls.
One for reagents and one for each antibody in a run. I'd like to know
what the practice is. This seems very costly and time consuming. Thanks in
advance!

With all due respect René; I have been using Formula 83 with my coverslipper
with no problems at all though have a glass coverslipper not a tape.

Dear List:
I strongly suggest that you NOT use any links offered by people with no
name and no affiliation. Yes, there are good spyware detection programs
available at no cost (Adaware for example) but I don't think this is one
of them. There are at least 3 potential saboteurs on this list.
