[Histonet] acetic acid

2011-01-23 Thread Cheryl

 Richard-
 
If it is a small amount (1L) you may be able to store it in your fume hood 
assuming you've no contradictory chemicals stored there at the same time.    
Best to keep it in an isolation container like the foam insert it probably came 
in.
 
If you use a dilute concentration on the bench, next time purchase it in the 
appropriate dilution rather than as a pure form, and the water in the mix takes 
it out of the flammable range and then it can go with your other acids.
 
Hope this helps!

Please I am wondering if you guys here in histoland could recommend some 
reading materials for the ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) Examination in 
Laboratory Safety, SLS(ASCP).

When you study for an exam, you have to find out what study materials
you're supposed to study. Someone on Histonet will know the answer to
this question.

When I actually have a problem, I consult the Dapsons'  book Hazardous
Materials in the Histopathology Laboratory, available from Anatech. (I
have no connection with Anatech.) See

Subject: [Histonet] Whole mount histology

I am totally unfamiliar regarding whole mount histology as it pertains to 
prostate histology.  Can anyone in histoland assist me in finding 
information out regarding more specifics, especially in lieu of what costs 
would be incurred to implement this in a routine hospital histology 
department.


Appreciate any and all guidance!!

[Histonet] in situ methodology part 2

2011-01-23 Thread louise renton
Hi all

just as clarification .i need to brush up on my background of ISH - what
new products/methododolgies there might be on the market. The tissues I will
be using will either be rodent pups/embryos or formalin fixed/fresh adult
tissue.

As for the probe - thats a stick point - not enough background information
to decide - but probably oligos.

So...the questions still stand:

   - where can i find good on-line material
   - Who offers the best application manuals - is Roche still int he market?

best regards
