Re: [Histonet] blades
Lauren Sweeney at the University of Georgia asks: >>Blades for grossing tissues- anyone have recommendations? The vendor that we were purchasing just straight razor blades from has stopped manufacturing them. We don't use scalpels because of their higher cost and we are only working with poultry samples.<< I just Googled "single edge razor blades" and they're still available from a number of sources. I've done hospital pathology grossing with them, though not in the last 40 years, and found them extremely satisfactory - in fact, I prefer them to scalpel blades. I've been shaving my face since 1951, and have never heard of anybody actually using them to shave with.

We use "carpet blades" from Lowes or Home Depot. They are cheap and fit the handles we already have On Mon, May 22, 2017 at 1:13 PM wrote: > Send Histonet mailing list submissions to > histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > histonet-requ...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu > > You can reach the person managing the list at > histonet-ow...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Histonet digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > >1. validation for special stains (Nancy Schmitt) >2.

[Histonet] HHV-8
Good morning histonetters! I'm looking for a new source for HHV-8 (KSV), clone 13B10, antibody. CellMarque's is no longer IVD, nor is Ventana. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thank you!

[Histonet] blades
Hi Histoland- Blades for grossing tissues- anyone have recommendations? The vendor that we were purchasing just straight razor blades from has stopped manufacturing them. We don't use scalpels because of their higher cost and we are only working with poultry samples. Thanks and have a great day! ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
