[Histonet] Specimen Triage

2015-06-23 Thread Spencer, Dana
We are trying to create a consistent and efficient process for the triage of 
Radiology specimens going to Cytology, Surgical Pathology and Microbiology. I 
would really like to hear how other hospitals are handling this. Do you have a 
central drop off location and if so who handles this? Does radiology take them 
to the appropriate depts? Do you have the same process 8am-5pm and after hours 
or do you have different processes?
I appreciate any feedback you are willing to give.
Thanks,
Dana

Re: [Histonet] Removing paraffin sections from glass slides

2015-06-23 Thread John Kiernan
Why shouldn't the slide surfaces remain positively charged after removing the 
sections? Water, alcohol and xylene are all routinely used, and don't impair 
electrostatic forces that help to hold the sections on the slide. The 
positively charged surface is not a coating that can be washed or rubbed off.
Joyce Weems's suggested method did not involve anything that might react 
chemically with the cationic (amino-hydrocarbon) groups that are covalently 
bound to the polysilicate structure of the glass. See

Re: [Histonet] de-waxing protocol on instruments just fact finding

2015-06-23 Thread Blazek, Linda
Rachel,

We dewax off line.  We use the same protocol that we do for any other staining; 
3 min in  3 changes of xylene (we use a xylene substitute though), 3 min in 2 
changes of 100% alcohol and one 3 min in 95%.  
We use BioCare's IntelliPath immuno stainer.  It is a completely open system.  
All of the sales reps, support techs, and service tech have always been very 
open and willing to help in any way to provide information and support for this 
stainer.  If by dewaxing you are also referring to off line antigen retrieval, 
we use the pressure cooker that BioCare has.  You can use any retrieval 
solution you choose with it.  If you need to use two different retrieval 
solutions you can fill your containers with two different retrieval reagents.  
I don't find that there is any difference in doing off line retrieval than on 
line retrieval.  
If I can answer any other questions please feel free to contact me.

Subject: [Histonet] de-waxing protocol on instruments just fact finding

Hi

Just beginning to look at instruments DAKO Ventana Leica. We may not have the 
budget but if we do However talking to the sales reps have been challenging 
as everything is proprietary.

This is for research consideration so we will use an open instrument? Which 
instrument do you like better open?

Does  manual dewaxing affect the staining? Every rep says yes... but does it?

What is the time for dewaxing when you start the instrument? What are the 
number of steps in the protocol? What is the waste generation like more or less 
than manual?

Thanks for your help.

Re: [Histonet] Antigen retrieval survey

2015-06-23 Thread John Kiernan
Your 2 minutes would be better spent looking in an immunohistochemistry 
textbook. A small but excellent one is Polak, J.M. and Van Noorden, S. (1997). 
Introduction to Immunocytochemistry, 2nd ed. Royal Microscopical Society 
Microscopy Handbooks, 37. Oxford: BIOS Scientific Publications. 

You will find that there is an optimal technique of antigen retrieval for each 
antigen that has been critically studied. Some conditions (such as pH6, close 
to 100C for an hour) are OK for many antigens. Some require more alkaline 
solutions (eg pH9, more section losses!) and a few respond best to heating in a 
more acid (eg pH2) solution. With lower temperatures (eg 80C) longer times are 
generally needed. All sorts of chemicals have been included in antigen 
retrieval solutions, often without obvious reasons or explanations. There are 
published papers that compare retrieval conditions for antigens of importance 
in diagnostic pathology. Retrieval can sometimes be achieved without heating, 
as with proteolytic enzymes or 3M urea.

With a survey you may find out which antigen retrieval methods are used by most 
of those who reply, but you will not learn anything about how to choose and use 
the methods, or why their discovery about 25 years ago was an important 
technological advance. 

Check out this classic paper with Web of Science, Scopus, or Google Scholar: 
Shi, S.-R., Key, M.E. and Kalra, K.L. (1991). Antigen retrieval in 
formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue: an enhancement method for 
immunohistochemical staining based on microwave oven heating of tissue 
sections. Journal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry 39:741-748. The PDF can 
be downloaded for free. This paper has been cited by thousands of other 
publications. The titles of recent citing articles may help you find a good 
retrieval procedure for the antigen that you need to detect 
immunohistochemically.

Re: [Histonet] Removing paraffin sections from glass slides

2015-06-23 Thread Hugh Luk



Hi Anna,

You could deparaffinize/rehydrate to 10% (or so) bleach.  Section(s) comes 
right off after ~1-60 minutes (or so).  Did this by accident (that was a bad 
day).  Deparaffinzation via Rene J Buesa's DWS 
(http://www.histosearch.com/ADP7HistologyWithoutXylene.pdf) method, or simply 
quick (20 seconds each) xylene/alcohol/water should suffice.  

I don't know what bleach will do to the charge on your plus slide, but I assume 
you should Clean with acid to be useful(?).

I have been queried about reusing slides from several physicians in the past, 
but never been organized enough to try it.

Good luck, in whatever you are doing.

Re: [Histonet] Removing paraffin sections from glass slides

2015-06-23 Thread Simmons, Christopher
Ventana loves that excuse for stain failures 
They even made us flip our slides upside down to place the control on the slide 
then flip them around to place the section on the slide due to the 
electrostatic forces 
Additionally all slides had to be air dried then placed in slide boxes prior to 
use
Crap I say!

 Subject: [Histonet] Removing paraffin sections from glass slides
 
 Hello,
 
 I'm wondering if anyone has experience removing dried unstained paraffin
 sections from charged glass slides. I don't need to preserve the sections,
 just want to reuse the slides.
 
 Thanks!
 Anna
