[Histonet] Slide interpretation training
Hi, I am looking to improve my slide interpretation skills, particularly in assessing tissue quality and structure in meniscus, skin and arteries (Picrosirius Red and Movat's Pentachrome stained sections). I work for a small company, with no pathologist on the pay roll, so the task has fallen to me. While I have some experience in slide interpretation, I am not as familiar with these tissues as I would like. Does anyone know of a suitable course or a pathologist willing to work as a mentor, preferably based in the UK that could provide training in these areas?

[Histonet] Microwave processing
Since I have been microwave processing GI biopsies, I have noticed that there is a blurry, fuzzy artifact on most of my slides in random spots on the tissue when looking under the scope. I asked the pathologist and he said he notices it too but he doesn't know what it is and it doesn't interfere with interpretation but it still bothers me. Does anyone else have this problem? I am almost certain it is from processing. I have stained some slides of tissue that were processed on a normal processor and I do not see that phenomenon. Is this due to microwave processing and is there a fix for it? Thanks!

[Histonet] Help on get PDF file paper from J. Histotechnology
Hi Histonetters, Would you please let me know why I can not get PDF file from J Histotechnology any more? I renewed my membership after new year and changed my password since i don't remember my old one. I can get in Maney Online for only Abstract, but not whole article. The paper I tried to get is: Parallel experience of two different lab with initiator perkadox 16 for polymerization of MMA. Vol 17, No 4, pp.343-348. Thanks in advance.

Re: [Histonet] Cryostat
Tanya and Madeline, Jan Minshew of Leica sent a nicely detailed response to Decontaminating a cryostat in January of 2010. She apparently wrote it to put in a Leica How To manual, although I did not notice it in this form. Everything she states is well documented, although I also incorporate a known virucide and tuberculocidal product (following it's directions, naturally). http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/pipermail/histonet/2010-January/048750.html If you have a UV cryostat, use Leica's Cryofect product or follow Tim Morken's previous (2000 histosearch)formaldehyde method, they should work for killing most bugs too(with the exception of eradicating some prions like CJD/BSE). If I am misunderstanding what you mean by Decon I apologize, as there is no reason why you cannot clean up tissue debris in a cold cryostat with 100% alcohol.
