RE: [EXTERNAL] [Histonet] GMS controls?
I have experimented on some things and found Blue Cheese to be excellent source of not only fungus but yeast and some bacteria. I did make a couple of smears with the blue cheese but seemed to do much better after just routine processing some of the crumbles of blue cheese in cassettes. Sincerely, Sherrian McAnn -Original Message- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Paula Sicurello Sent: Tuesday, March 17, 2015 5:51 PM To: HistoNet Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Histonet] GMS controls? Good Afternoon Netters, I have a project to validate a special stainer and will be starting with GMS. What can I use as a good source of fungus? Was it last week there was mention of orange peels and onions? I need to get the OK of the attending pathologist, so I probably can't use anything too funky, like fruits and vegetables. I don't have access to fresh lung tissue to smear cream cheese on (also mentioned last week) so I was hoping some type of easy to buy processed food (like Slim Jims from Gram stain) is out there to be used as a fungal control. Ideas? Thanks in advance.

[Histonet] RE: bone marrow billing fees
Hi Lacie, Anything that is grossed, embedded and has slides cut and stained by histology (core bx or clot) should be billed an 88305.
