RE: [Histonet] Histology Lab Supervisor Requirements - New York State/CAP Regula tions?

2010-07-30 Thread Thomas Jasper
Hi Tanisha,

I think the question might be...who's requirements are you referring to.
I see by the header you reference NY state.  I see by your signature
that you are in Indiana.  I am not aware of any CAP reg referencing this
and, to my knowledge most labs have their own job descriptions written
with their own qualifications listed.  You say ...right now I'm being
told... so again, by who (whom).

You also reference a BA, I'm assuming this means BS or BAS works as
well.  I personally know very good supervisors that are associate
degreed and hold HTs.  I also know supervisors that have bachelor's
degrees and I wouldn't necessarily say that they are any better because
of it, however I think that's a truism across a lot of occupations.

Just trying to understand your question.

Have a good day.

Hi Histonetters:

Our HR/QA team is struggling to understand exactly what the requirements
are for Histology Technicians/Technologists to become laboratory
supervisor. It is my understanding that the requirements are not exactly
the same as those for the traditional clinical lab. And until recently,
the regulations were vague regarding our field. 

Right now, I am being told that to be supervisor requires a BA degree
and 6 years of experience subsequent to receiving that degree. I am not
sure that is accurate. 

If anyone has any information they can share, I would greatly appreciate
it.

[Histonet] staining charged slides

2010-07-30 Thread Dianne E. Holmes
Should charged slides be used for 25 micron sections going thru Nissl stain 
process?  I have used this process on 50 micron sections mounted on 
gelatin-subbed slides and it worked fine.   This time the investigator wanted 
thinner slides which promptly  fell off in the staining dish!!  What 
alternatives do I have for processing this tissue?  HELP !

[Histonet] strontium vs. calcium in bone

2010-07-30 Thread Collette, Nicole M.
Hi, Everyone,

Happy Friday! I was wondering if anyone knows of a histological method to 
distinguish strontium in bone vs. calcium? My understanding is that mineral 
stains (von Kossa or Alizarin Red S) do not distinguish, but was wondering if 
anyone has a procedure I may not have done or seen? I have ways to get at the 
answer, but for completeness sake, I thought I should ask the experts. Thanks 
for your help!

Sincerely,

RE: [Histonet] Coverslipping Problem - Please Help!

2010-07-30 Thread Collette, Nicole M.
Hi, Brian,

It is likely to be a pH issue. If you use BM Purple as your detection chromogen 
(which is what we use in our lab for whole mounts on X. laevis and 
X.tropcialis, and mouse embryos for WMISH), then you must keep the embryos at 
acid pH from BM Purple step onwards, or you will re-activate the BM Purple 
(hint: Alkaline phosphatase substrate). Light from the microscope compounds 
your problem. You are likely cryoprotecting and/or coverslipping with neutral 
or slightly alkaline solution, if you use something acidic, you should be fine. 
You can adjust the pH of your sucrose pretty readily, so that's not too hard. 
If you are only coverslipping temporarily for photos (not for archiving), you 
can simply use a glycerol/PBS pH 5.5 mixture for photos, then discard your 
slides. Coverslipping for archiving might be a question better addressed my 
someone else on histonet who is more knowledgeable about mounting media.

Good luck!
Sincerely,
Nicole Collette

Subject: [Histonet] Coverslipping Problem - Please Help!

Dear Histonet members,
 I have been cryosectioning Xenopus laevis embryos this summer that have 
undergone a whole mount chromogenic in situ.  The embryos are then fixed 
overnight in a formaldehyde solution (1X MEMFA) at 4 C, then stored in 1 x PBS 
until they are cryoprotected in a sucrose solution at least overnight at 4 C.  
Then they are put in TBS tissue freezing medium for 2-3 hours at room 
temperature before being frozen and sectioned.  The sections come out looking 
very nice with good morphology, but when they are coverslipped (2 1 minute 
washes in 1 x PBS to dissolve the tissue freezing medium) with VectaMount AQ 
aqueous mounting medium, the sections turn very dark under the microscope, 
especially the gut region.  They are so dark that it becomes difficult to see 
the signal from the in situ.  Any help or advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thank you for your time,

RE: [Histonet] Histology Lab Supervisor Requirements - New York State/CAP Regula tions?

2010-07-30 Thread Weems, Joyce
Perhaps someone is thinking about CLIA for which the pathologist meets the 
requirements for supervisor because they do the diagnosing. Most facilities 
set their own requirements. which would most likely require an HT  (HTL 
preferred) and so many years experience, supervisory experience preferred. This 
allows for more flexibility in hiring. 

Hope this helps, 

Joyce

Rather than use Halt (or other adhesive) in your water bath, have you tried
using charged slides - those used for IHC.  Then air-dry or heat dry the
tissues before deparaffinizing.   Any water left in the tissue will cause
wash-offs.  Do not lower the pH of the silver solution.

[Histonet] filing unstained slides

2010-07-30 Thread zodiac29
To All, 


Just wanted to know how other labs are filing their unstained slides?? If 
filing along with stained coverslipped slides wouldn't the sections on the 
unstained slides get scratched?? Any input is appreciated. 


Thanks in advance,

We file them along with the regular HE usually used when we have send out 
or re-cut requests. They rarely get scratched (but you must handle them with 
care).

I found that shortening the time in the potassium permanganate solved  my 
tissue wash off problem.  I was staining liver sections cut at 4 microns  on 
plusslides.
