[Histonet] RE: Tissue Processor Location in the Lab
Tim, We have a separate room for the tissue processors. We have a chemical fume hood for pouring all chemicals into carboys via a funnel that is in a hole cut in the hood work surface, and a carboy directly beneath. We also have a fume extraction system above each tissue processor that is designed to pull any fumes up and away from anyone working at that processor. It does not enclose the processor, but sits above it.

[Histonet] Re: Tissue processor times
Carol, We just obtained a VIP 6 processor and we have a program for routine overnight processing. It seems to work well. I will send or fax it to you by Monday. The Tissue-tek sales rep that installed and trained us, mentioned about increasing the times in the alcohols for fatty/breast tissue. You can try this and make any adjustments to the program I am sending. We have two stations of formalin at two hours each. As a side note, we have two Excelsior processors also and except for a few glitches, they seem to work fine. Take care. Garret Miyamoto Lead histotech, Anatomic Pathology Dept.

Find someone with whom you don't agree in the slightest and ask them to explain themselves at length. Then take a seat, shut your mouth, and don't argue back. It's physically impossible to listen with your mouth open. -John Moe Maturity is accepting imperfections.

[Histonet] Re: tissue processor
hello, I'm in search of the best tissue processor on the market thats' most comparable to the Autotechnicon Ultra II. I specifically need it to be equipped with vacuum heat controlled processing and for it to possess the capability of processing 2.75 and/or 1.5 stainless steel round tissue cassettes. Prompt reply will be much appreciated. ~ Atoska ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
[Histonet] (Re)Tissue processor issues
We have an ASP 300 and have had it for 3 years. Initially we had a lot of trouble, and it was always breaking the O-rings on the reagent bottles. We can't remember the exact problem, but think it had something to do with a torque that was to high. Recently we had problems with pressure intermittently and they replaced valves inside. Other than that it has been a very reliable processor, and actually processes our tissue the best of all our processors, including a VIP5. Beth A.
