Bill, I can highly recommend the EBS processor microwave. At a base price of 8,900 (last I checked) it is one of the lowest cost processors on the market. I don't know if having the flexibility to process in this new microwave may help justify the price? I purchased mine from Stat Lab, and the customer service from the folks at EBS was outstanding; they even had a prob and air agitator block style holder designed and built for me when I suggested that it should come with one. I really like our model, and it offers great flexibility in our lab.

While I think it would be "cool" to have one, I'm wondering if the cost is justified to do a handful of special stains that could be done (though more slowly) in a laboratory oven like the one we already have. Anyone with the time or desire to opine, please chime in. Those who have purchased such a microwave, I'll gladly take suggestions. Thanks in advance William (Bill) O'Donnell, HT (ASCP) QIHC Lead Histologist Good Samaritan Hospital 10 East 31st Street Kearney, NE 68847 _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
