Hello,



We just got CLIA inspected and had no deficiencies. The inspector did say he 
wants to see us write down on any reagent containers when it was opened, and 
write down the new expiration date.



The containers have the expiration date on them from the manufacturer, but the 
inspector said when the container is opened, the expiration will change and we 
need to write the date on the container under the opened date.



I've never heard of this requirement and I would like to ask if you have.
He said if the vendor does not give us any written documentation of when a 
reagent would expire after it's opened, then we should seek an alternate vendor 
who can.



Any comments, etc. are greatly appreciated.

Hai all Histonetters
 Please anybody clarify my this doubt if possible.
When doing Immunohistochemistry for confirmation of Melanoma with DAB 
chromogen(brown color)the interpretation is not possible because of obscuring 
by the dense melanin pigment. We dont have any other color chromogen. I tried 
ihc after bleaching but the section gets detached even from charged slides. Is 
there any other effective way to do this?
Thanks in advance

Re: [Histonet] [External] Crystals in PAS from Ventana

2016-07-21 Thread Bitting, Angela K. via Histonet
Hi Mark,
 We still have this issue after two years of complaining to Roche.  We've had 
multiple TAS's come in and we've sent slides to Tucson. They've gone over the 
instruments, etc. Long story short, their fix was adding something to their 
package insert that says "Schiff's Reagent is known to contain some needle-like 
precipitate. At expected levels, this precipitate should not affect assay 
performance". Good luck.

I am wondering if anyone else has been having issues with the PAS stain.  The 
crystals are not rinsing off of the slide using the benchmark special stainer.  
We are on our 3rd lot number, no change.  We have had our tubing changed and 
our instrument checked to make sure the rinse is appropriate.  This problem is 
causing our lab great frustration.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

To My Lab Colleagues:

As my intent has never been to sow discontent or rancor, I think it is for the 
best if I no longer post links to my blog, lab related or otherwise.  Of course 
the blogs go on, and if anyone is interested in being added to my mailing list 
for future notifications, just drop me a
line at les.r...@post.com   The mailing list
is never used for any purpose other than announcing a new blog post. Be sure to 
let me know you are from the Histonet list!

I will continue to participate in any histology/pathologist discussions here as 
I have for many years.

Hello Histoland,

I need some advice, I have a PT block that is positive with Spirochetes.
What would be the best way to use this block as a positive control?

1)  Cut (serial sections, stain the last slide for bugs) and oven time
(60) for 1 hr.
 then put slides in refrigerator for future use.
2)  Cut (serial sections, stain the last slide for bugs) NO oven time and put 
slides
 directly in refrigerator for future use.
3)  Cut "fresh" every time they order the Ab.

Thank you,
Cindy

Is it me or does anyone else think $20 is a lot of money for a T-shirt?  The 
Histotechnology Professionals Day T-shirts on NSH'S website seem over-priced.
