Re: [Histonet] Stainer comparisons
Are used to work for Roche. The HE600 is an option that I would not choose. The instrument has too many moving parts and the rate of service is much higher than any of the dip and dunk strainers on the market. The reagents are proprietary, so you are forced to use Roche staining reagents. The Dako H strainer is bad too.

Re: [Histonet] Stainer comparisons
Toni, hope my 5 cents contribution will Help in deciding your future auto stainer. I have experience in Sakura units, 6 + years, and an old Leica unit, 10 + years. The most positive feature for the first unit is that once is giving the proper maintenance is that it works pretty well, the good advantage is that you can load in every oven, (coming with 2 oven dwells), but if you overloaded it will delay your H staining. I think with other models is occurring the same results… Other advantage now is that you can attach an automatic cover slipper. (Film cover slipped)… It’s important to have at least 2 units for a big number of H slides… I was working in a facility with at least 45 hundred H slides, no counting levels per protocols, recuts, etc., The only downside for all units, is that they cannot left without proper regular maintenance and service. At this moment you may have almost decided which unit serves your lab needs better.

Re: [Histonet] Stainer comparisons
Rene, I have the information from the vendors as you suggested. What I'm looking for is opinions. If you (or anyone else on histonet) have experience with either or both of these stainers, I'd like to know what you feel are the best features. Also looking to see what features are not as well praised or useful. Which specials do you run, and how do they compare to what you were previously using? How did getting one of these stainers impact your day-to-day operations? Did the positives outweigh the negatives, if there were any.

Re: [Histonet] Stainer comparisons
Toni, the complete information can be found on the manufacturer specifications for these auto stainers. The only factor to be solved, no matter what instrument you will be selecting, is that you keep close monitoring of the service required for them. Important to be on the correct TAT.

[Histonet] Stainer comparisons
Good morning all, We're at the point where we are looking at replacing our H stainer, and I'm wondering what opinions are out there about the Leica HistoCore Spectra ST - High Throughput Routine & Special Stainer and the Sakura Prisma Plus Special Stainer Configuration. What specials do you run on these stainers? Does this significantly increase the TAT of the H slides? Overall, what do you like or not like about either?
