[Histonet] Tissue Tek Prisma Model 6130
Any experience-based resolution on the problem of the touch screen pad/monitor of the Tissue Tek Prisma Stainer 6130 wherein the screen turns black while a program is running. The program continues to run even though the screen is not illuminated. I thought I'd throw this out there in case someone knows a way to resolve it before I call for repair. I'm still able to use the stainer by placing sticker labels on the screen so I know where to press :-) Rolly Perez Histology Supervisor | MedSurg Pathology 8192 SW Durham Road, Tigard OR 97224 Tel: 503.443.2157 | Fax: 503.670.9754 ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet

[Histonet] Re-send Darker &/or granular hematoxylin staining (no photo)
Hello my colleagues, Any input will be much appreciated - what can cause darker and/or granular hematoxylin staining on the goblet cells (mucin areas) of certain GI biopsies while on other similar GIs in the very same rack of slides, they stain water clear which is the preferred outcome. I use regressive H&E staining using Sigma Aldrich Harris hemtoxylin & standard 1% Acid alcohol (hydrocholric acid). I tried stronger acid for differentiation, cut thinner, longer time in acid differentiation, less hematoxylin time, to try to get the mucin staining as minimal as possible but I can't seem to eliminate the darker &/or more granular staining on some GIs. Thanks in advance for any thoughts you might have!
