[Histonet] Dako Auto Plus

2020-06-03 Thread Kristy Castillo via Histonet
Does anyone have any old tube racks they want to get rid of?  We use the
Dako Auto Plus for our IHC and could use some more racks.  Thank you in
advance.

[Histonet] Regulation for grossing derms

2020-05-08 Thread Kristy Castillo via Histonet
My question is:  What would be the regulation (CLIA) to gross dermatology
specimens? Are they not considered high complexity?  Also, don't you have
to have a HT to do this?   Someone is telling me they can gross as long as
they have associates.  Is that correct?  Sorry, I am a little confused with
this.  Thankful for all who answer this question.

[Histonet] IHC validation

2020-05-06 Thread Kristy Castillo via Histonet
Would like to know when validating for IHC for a dermatology lab and just
for CLIA (no CAP), do you just need to show a shave, punch and excision
lighting up?  Thanks!

[Histonet] IHC DAB

2020-05-01 Thread Kristy Castillo via Histonet
Hi Histonetters,

We are starting our IHC (fun times), we are having trouble with the DAB
lighting up.  Processed for 5 thru 10 minutes and still nothing.  Our
permanent red is working just fine.  Any ideas.

Thank you!

[Histonet] HT Exam

2016-03-29 Thread Kristy Castillo via Histonet
How would I be able to get a example test for the HT exam?  Is there a place 
that you can go to get example questions?  Know someone studying for the exam, 
but she is not sure what to study and is really nervous.   Thanks Histonetters!
