[Histonet] cause of tissue proccessing problem
I have been told something strange from a pathologist, that some tissue in the same block had processing issues. There are conflicting reasoning of what could be the problem.I have been in in Histology as an HTL for over thirty years, and I have never heard this explaination for tissue not processing correctly within the same cassette. We are using the blue formalin absorptionpads at the grossing table. Have been for years. Now our new pathologist has said he is seeing blocks with two or more pieces of tissue in them, some fried and some ok in the same block. My first thoughtwas no way this is happening, either all had processing problem. Not just some of the blocks. They want to say the formalin pads at the grossing station are neutralizing the tissue before process? What does Histonetters think? Please give suggestions.

[Histonet] DAB precipitate on H. pylori
I have been getting something on some slides, not all that looks like bacteria but it is not. It looks like Dab precipitate. It looks like the Dab is breaking down, but only noticeable on the stains for H. pylori. I wash my water bath, and changes my blades. It not occurs all the time, but it has happened about four times. Could it be the water not being filtered properly. We have a water filtering system, but it has not been working well lately. Would that have anything to do with the brown patches on H. pylori? ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
