Hello to all in histoland. We are currently having a problem with candida on
our AFB slides. We are doing the stain by hand due to the unavailability of
the AFB kits from ventana. We are using bottled sterile water for rinses and
the slides are not being put in coplin jars for staining. All solutions are
being pipetted on to the slides. All alcohols are fresh and the kit which is
from American MasterTech is new, just opened. This by the way is a cytology
case(cystospin). Containers to run down to water have been bleached. Any
suggetions where to go next.
