Re: [Histonet] HTL exam
René is correct. IHC stains are named according to the primary antibody used, but it would be useless to ask questions about individual antibodies because new ones are continuously developed. Study the general method and how it might vary (pretreatments, detection systems, chromogens.) -Eric On Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 1:24 PM, Rene J Buesa wrote: > I believe that "IHC stains" (by the way, they are not stains but detectable > immunohistochemical reactions) refers to the method itself and its > methodology. > René J. > > From: Karla Arrington > To: Histonet > Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2011 3:32 PM > Subject: [Histonet] HTL exam > > Histonetters: > > I have a co-hort that is going to be taking the HTL exam shortly.

I believe that "IHC stains" (by the way, they are not stains but detectable immunohistochemical reactions) refers to the method itself and its methodology. René J.

[Histonet] Surgipath VCP cassette printer
We have a old surgipath VCP cassette printer that is not working due to the print head going out. We have had this unit for some time. Leica has since taken over Surgipath, and they no longer support this particular unit. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement printhead for this unit. This is the printer that our residents use for making additional cassettes. We have a Leica IPC printer that we make the bulk of the cassettes on,and the resients are not allowed to use this one. Any help in this will be greatly appreciated.
