[Sanders, Jeanine (CDC/OID/NCEZID)]

At the time we were looking to buy our first ss instrument we were very 
interested in the Nexes but they did not have a Gram protocol at the time. We 
went with the Dako Artisan because of this and have had good success with it.

Hazel is correct if you use the pure ethanol the paperwork is horrible and the 
limits on what should be in the lab are very low for a normal Histology Lab.  
Reagent alcohol is the best way to go as it has methanol and isopropanol in it 
so it is undrinkable and therefore not under the same ATF rules of usage.

[Histonet] RE: Decon HydeAway

[Cates, Julia]

Jim,

We have used the HydeAway powder for several years now.  We use it to 
neutralize tissue before disposing.  Once the formalin "gels" the container is 
disposed of in a biohazard bag.  In our experience, if there is anything other 
than formalin in the container (Our Dr's use Disect Aid for lymph nodes) in 
will not "gel" properly.  In my opinion it is a very good product.

Anybody using Decon HydeAway for neutralization of 10% NBF.  If so what are 
your experiences and do you dispose of the product (gel) into your solid 
biological  waste for disposal?

In the past I have used Formalex or Formalex Green.  This material looks 
cheaper but cheaper is not always better of course.

[Histonet] RE: specials stainers

[Marcum, Pamela A]

We use our Leica H&E stainer for PAS only as it is the fastest way we have 
found to get 30 to 40 bone marrow PAS slides out before 6:30AM every morning.  
Otherwise it was just too cumbersome and the Dako does a great job on all 
routine stains.  We only do the neuro stains and Copper by hand now.  The Dako 
Copper kit is a different procedure and our pathologist like so it can't be 
used.  The PAS is just too slow for the turnaround we need daily.  The stain is 
great!!

Re: [Histonet] Re: Recycling alcohol

[Pam Marcum]

The issue is of isoprpanol and/or methanol is really not the point.  The ATF 
requires the alcohol to be unfit for human consumption so either or both of 
these solutions in ethanol will render it dangerous and undrinkable.  If you do 
not have one or both of these in the ethanol it is taxed and therefore very 
expensive and time consuming.

[Marcum, Pamela A]

We have used both and prefer the Dao hands down.  They are responsive if you 
have questions and very good staining.  We don't need to clean t after each run 
as it is all self contained and easy to use.
