[Histonet] Oil Red O
Hi, I have seen this too. I mitigate the problem by making it up in 50 ml increments and staining them flat. I draw from around the middle of the Falcon tube I make it up in. It tends to precipitate so you could filter it. Don't bother re-using the reagent. It's cheap & easy to make up. I usually only see the precipitate with old solutions. Just make what you use within a few weeks.

Re: [Histonet] Oil Red O
Hi Reuel, In my experience this is the ORO crystallizing out on the section. I would first filter your staining solution, then keep your staining times to as short as you can. Also changing between 37 and room temperatures may be useful too. mills ᐧ On Wed, Oct 3, 2018 at 8:39 AM Reuel Cornelia via Histonet < histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu> wrote: > I was wondering if you could help me know why our Oil Red O have some > black snowflakes on our fat tissue hours after staining or after 24 hours > more snowlflakes precipitation occurs.

[Histonet] Oil Red O
I was wondering if you could help me know why our Oil Red O have some black snowflakes on our fat tissue hours after staining or after 24 hours more snowlflakes precipitation occurs. The staining was reference was from Lillie RD, Ashburn. Please note that our staining works well between two to three hours. Is there a reason fro this precipitation?

[Histonet] slide folders with space for blocks too
I want to order some folders that have space for blocks to go with the slides. I swear this exists - I remember very clearly bringing it up as a suggestion at my last job and the pathologist there shutting it down instantly (he didn't want to be responsible for checking the block against the slide himself). The only ones I can find googling now are these: http://sourcemp.com/consulting-folder-for-slides-and-blocks.aspx But I am certain I saw them before with room for 20, and they were plastic if I remember right. Anyone else remember these things, or have I lost my mind? ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
