[Histonet] TBS Shurwave Microwave
Hi All, I am looking into getting a TBS Shurwave Microwave and was trying to get some thoughts on the machine. I will be looking into processing GI biopsies and was wondering if the turn around time is good, consistency, reliability? Thanks, -E ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
[Histonet] TBS MICROWAVE PROCESSOR
Eric, I currently use the TBS shur/wave processor. I have used it for 4 years now and in all honesty in the beginning it was a struggle to find the programs that would work for me. TBS tech support is not what we would say great by any means (they sucked). They were in no way helpful to me in giving me direction what so ever. But now I am satisfied with the results we are getting in our lab after many hours of trouble shooting on my own. Bx time for my program is about 22 minutes, 1 mm is 33, 2mm is 1 hour 3 minutes. I found that microwaved processed tissue reacts very differantly to staining. For example H E staining times are much longer than some protocols I have used. If you would like to ask me specific questions just e-mail me.

Re: [Histonet] cryostat repair--thanks!
The compressor fan was loose, so when the Tech One guy fixed it, instead of making a horrible noise when it turns off, it just rattles. Oh well, time for a new motor. Which leads me to another question, is there any reason I should call Lecia to replace this motor? The guy from Tech One Biomedical seemed to know his stuff, but my boss seems to think we should call the people who made the cryostat. Personally, I think that would be spending a lot more money for the same thing, but maybe I'm missing something. Any suggestions? By the way, the cryostat is from 2008 and isn't under warranty.

Price is $5 for non-NSH members, $3 for NSH members. Please realize that they are 4 and 6 years old. They will not understand cells or nuclei. They will not be able to understand that their skin is made up of small things, too small for them to see. And that each of these tiny things have tiny nuclei/brains. At that age, they can understand things they can feel or see, like bones (dinosaurs), the stomach (as in aches, but don't try to explain 20 feet of intestines that look like a big worm - they will take that image literally), eyes (they can see them), the heart (they can feel it). They will understand the brain as their head doing the thinking, not as a separate organ. Lungs are somewhat iffy for the 6 year old - they will understand breathing in and out, any maybe the concept of a balloon. Kidney, liver, spleen, etc. are definitely out. The Crayola website has some nice very simple drawings that can be printed out. http://www.crayola.com/free-coloring-pages/Human-Body-coloring-pages/ And for those wondering what to do for the Bring Your Son/Kid to Work Day, the Crayola website has drawing for several ages - skeletons and organs for the younger kids; the cell, heart and eye for the older kids. The other option for your nieces is an anatomy apron. Google it. It's vinyl, with outlines of the organs, and colorful organs that velcro onto the apron, in the correct location. Just a thought.
