Re: [Histonet] commercial decalcifier ingredients?
Gudrun: According with the manufacturer, it contains a combination (melage) of acids and folmaldehyde.

Re: [Histonet] Billing question
As your pathologists first because even when we charged for IHC to the patients, there was always a disclaimer saying that the Ab was for research, in spite of which, the charges were done (they are essentially for the pathologist interpretation).Hope this will help you.

RE: [Histonet] thermometer calibration
I have purchased a calibrated digital thermometer. I take the temps using the calibrated thermometer and the regular thermometer. Compare the difference and list it at the top of my Quality Control sheets for the instruments. When the temps are taken everyday with the regular thermometer they are listed on the daily record sheet. These temps should fall within the designated temps. This worked for my last inspection. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Margiotta, Michele Sent: Monday, December 08, 2008 9:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Histonet] thermometer calibration Hi All, Just wondering how everyone is doing their thermometer calibrations.

[Histonet] coverslip issues
Hi all, I'm looking for some help in choosing a new vendor for coverslips for the Thermo Consul coverslipper. We have been buying coverslips from Thermo since we bought the instrument, and the last shipment (of 10 cases) is from a new supplier and is not working in the instrument. The coverslip cannot be detected and the mountant is not dispensing. I spoke with the technician (Diane is wonderful) and she walked me through a diagnostic on the Consul and the instrument is not the problem. Does anyone out there have a suggestion as to a coverslip that they know works in the Consul? I have already tried the Vista from VWR (which is okay, but not perfect) and am eagerly awaiting requested samples. Thanks for your help. Denise Crowley Facility Manager Histology David H.
