Re: [Histonet] Help for identifying the blue stained structure

2014-05-18 Thread Marvin Hanna

Hi Rui,

You uploaded a tif image and a number of browsers don't support tif 
images. Jpeg, gif and png images are the best image formats to use 
because they are universally supported. I converted your image to a jpeg 
image and posted it at:

Hello,
I have an embryonic sample that
decalcified, paraffin embedded, and stained with Mallory Trichrome (Aniline
Blue, Orange G, Acid Fuchsin). I will upload the image in the Histonet Images. 
This
is a cranial region where the bone is being resorbed, so I expected to see the
bone (dark blue in trabecular), and red blood, and adjacent white spaces that
is being resorbed. Instead, there is a very uniform, granular structure stained
with blue without any nuclei at the resorbed regions. This structure looks like
almost crystal or some kind of secretion leakage from the ossifying bone. I
need a help to identify this blue stained things. I don't think this is osteoid,
because at later stage embryos, there is no bone at this region.

If you have some suggestions for other
stain to identify this blue thing, or help identifying this, I really
appreciate it.

  


Thank you in advance,

Re: [Histonet] Is there a way to post pictures of slides on histonet? Or to make them available for people to look at?

2014-04-30 Thread Marvin Hanna

Hi Patrick,

You can upload images for Histonet at 
http://histosearch.com/imageupload/. The Histonet listserver does not 
allow attachments to messages to prevent the spread of malware. Let me 
know if you have any problems.

Re: [Histonet] I just posted 2 photos to histosearch

2014-04-30 Thread Marvin Hanna

Hi Patrick,

To post more than one image, there is a link under choose file where 
you uploaded the first picture for add another image. When you click 
add another image, it opens up another choose file box for a second 
image to upload. Or you can just post them one at a time if you like.


I've seen that black precipitate on slides in an IHC lab I was at a 
couple of years ago. If I remember correctly, we thought it was a 
formalin-heme pigment which can be caused when formalin is acidic (not 
buffered).

[Histonet] Posting Images for Histonet

2014-04-23 Thread Marvin Hanna

Hi Histonetters,

Tim Morken asked me about posting images for discussion on Histonet a 
couple of weeks ago and we noticed our images website is no longer 
running. As we move into digital pathology, having the ability to post 
images to discuss on Histonet will become more important. So, we set up 
an easy way to post images for Histonet on Histosearch at 
http://histosearch.com/imageupload/. You need to fill in your name, a 
title for your images, select images to upload from your computer or 
smartphone and click submit. There is no need to register and it takes 
about 2 minutes. We intentionally did not include comments on the 
website so the discussions will take place on Histonet.


We have also set up mobile pages for searching Histosearch and the 
archives at http://m.histosearch.com and 
http://m.histosearch.com/histonet.html for histologists on the go.


You may also want to try out the new image searching capabilities on 
Histosearch http://www.histosearch.com. After searching with 
keyword(s) such as ki67 or alcian blue, there is a link at the top of 
the results for images. Clicking this will provide images related to 
your keyword(s) from the over 12 million histopathology related pages 
searched in Histosearch. We believe we have the largest list of 
histology educational resources on the internet at Histosearch and they 
are now searchable for text and images. Let us know if we've missed any 
histology resources.


Best Regards,

Marvin Hanna

Hi Jeanine,

Hmmm... The only way that should happen is if someone put your email 
address in and clicked unsubscribe 3 times. That's the purpose of the 
confirmation email so that no one else can unsubscribe (or subscribe) 
you. So, anyone out there trying to unsubscribe Jeanine, please stop. 
The computer server is smarter than you. And we like Jeanine. :-)

[Histonet] Re: Reliable... Hi Bill (William DeSalvo), Let's try this: A Newbie's Guide to Histonet

2012-10-03 Thread Marvin Hanna

Hi Histocare and any other relatively new people to Histonet,

First, hello from Bill and I in beautiful Vancouver and NSH where many 
histologists are enjoying old friends and making new friends from around 
the world. Let's remember histology is still a pretty small field in the 
US with about 25,000 histologists working in about 7,000 labs, plus more 
and more working in research labs and companies. Over a career, you're 
likely to meet many of them if you come to enough NSHs. For those of us 
who have been on Histonet since the beginning (1996?), we would like to 
remind others of the facts of Histonet:


The Histonet listserver is an email listserver for the histology 
profession that is managed by Dr. Margraf and Dr. Cope-Yokoyama and is 
run on computers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. 
University policies prohibit advertising, but do allow posting of jobs, 
probably so everybody can dream about being a histologist in some 
distant place. There are even some temp positions and jobs wanted emails 
posted every now and then.


Histocare, your first posting was no problem and we enjoy seeing all the 
ways histologists use to market their talents. Three posts in one week 
is a little redundant. We got it the first time.


Companies (Vendors) are permitted to post in response to problems of 
labs when they have something positive to contribute. Histonet currently 
has more than 4000 members from throughout the world, with many 
thousands more who keep up with it through the archives. The archives 
have over 30,000 visits a month from over 50 different countries.


We all want to read questions and answers about problems in histology. 
Many of us remember before Histonet when labs had to actually solve 
their problems by themselves. Now over 30,000 times a month a histology 
problem is solved by one of the eloquent answers of contributors to 
Histonet.


And Histocare, you can be anonymous on Histonet if you like, but you 
might want to search the archives for others opinions on it. It has been 
discussed previously. And when you have a website, you can't be 
anonymous, because I was able to do a whois search and get your name and 
address. I would recommend using your name and credentials proudly.


So, let's get back to solving histology problems on Histonet and leave 
Dr. Margraf and Dr. Cope-Yokoyama alone. They have patients and stuff 
they're working on. Just remember to treat others in your profession 
with respect on Histonet. You just might meet them one day at NSH. And 
remember to think twice (or three times) before hitting the send button 
with a negative message. Thousands of us really don't want to hear it.


Histonet welcomes all histology questions and a vast majority of the 
participants think if you don't know the answer, it's not a dumb 
question, so feel free to ask. Those that don't think so will flame you 
mercilessly off list for posting, but I recommend you ignore them.


A little research in the archives shows me that 94% of the time an email 
war breaks out on Histonet, testosterone is involved...


Respectfully,

Marvin Hanna

Re: [Histonet] Charged slides

2011-01-07 Thread Marvin Hanna

Hi Helen,

Plus is the branding for silanized slides, so they are the same. As  
far as magical, I'm not sure, but the silanization procedure  
covalently bonds the amino groups in APES (3- 
Aminopropyltriethoxysilane, available from Sigma) to the silicate  
ions on the surface of the glass, creating a positive charge on the  
slide.


Polylysine coating also puts a positive charge on the slide, but it  
is just a coating, unlike the chemically reacted covalent bond of the  
silanization procedure.


A positive charge on the surface of the slide allows for strong  
bonding with negatively charged formalin fixed tissue.


John Kiernan wrote a paper many years back on adhesives for slides  
that shows the procedure and chemical reaction in silanizing slides.  
It is available here.

http://publish.uwo.ca/~jkiernan/adhesivs.htm

Kind Regards,

Marvin Hanna

Hi, A question has come up regarding the different methods used to  
put a charge on the slide. We recently ordered some plus slides and  
the boxes they are packed in say silanized slides, but they say   
plus on the slide . We don't want to use these for our clients if  
they are not going to be getting the same results as the former  
plus slides that we were using. I was under the delusion that  
Plus slides somehow are magically charged without any coating  
process taking place.


So does anyone know exactly how a plus slide gets its charge? Do  
they all get dipped in APES, or Polylysine?


Thanks for your help.
