I had the same problem with StatLab markers. I would have issues when I let
tissue set
in formalin bottles all night. I would skip the formalin steps on the processor
and go straight
to 70% alcohol. This would almost completely erase the writing on the cassettes.
The product manager informed me The Statmark Pens are made with an aqueous ink
and if exposed to fingers prints or other solutions prior to being set by
submerged in
100% Alcohol they will be erased or badly smudged.
I keep a container of 100% alcohol on my grossing bench and dip the
cassettes first before adding tissue from the containers. by time I add the
tissue and close the cassette lid the alcohol has evaporated and locks the ink
into the plastic cassette. If they are still slightly wet or you have alcohol on
your hands they will still smudge so be careful handling cassettes.
I have not had issues since going to this process.

offices.
Histos,
I have a question. We are a Derm POL and we recently opened a satellite office.
I have been putting the satellite address on the pathology requisitions but do
the path reports need to have that address or the address of the main lab where
they were processed. Bacisly does CLIA want the address where the specimen was
from, or the address where it was processed.
Thank You,
Nicole Tatum

Hi Histoland,
We have a satellite lab that manually prepares their cassettes. We have had
significant problems with the markers coming off after tissue processing. We
have tried StatLab markers, Leica Markers and the red AquaRellable pencils and
continue to have issues. Other than purchasing a cassette labeling system
(their volumes are pretty low and there is limited bench space in the lab for a
cassette labeler) does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on what might be
causing this phenomenon or a really good permanent lab marker that has been
successful for you?

We use Secureline Marker II/superfrost Histoprep pens from Fisher. Their item #
is 14-905-30 for black, 14-905-35 for red. We have never had a problem with
them smearing or fading on the cassettes no matter what we subject them to.

The regulations vary from city to city and are managed at the municipal level.
It is usually set and managed by the city chemist or the head of the EPA
(Environmental Protection Agency) for your area. It can also vary when
compared to the total volume sewage discharged from your facility. Believe it
or not, in some places, small amounts can be approved for drain disposal
without any neutralization. Make friends with your city EPA rep. It can be an
invaluable relationship, and usually they will appreciate your effort to be
compliant.

Hello histonet,
My coworker wants me to ask experts here the best way to use Potassium
Chloride during rodent heart harvesting. Could any one share your
procedure? We searched around on internet but not much help.
If there's any way other than Potassium Chloride to relax heart muscle,
please advice too.
Thanks,
Amy
