[Histonet] Ventana probes
I have a Pathologist asking me to try running Kappa and Lambda by CISH on bone marrow smears. Does anyone have any experience with trying that?

[Histonet] Ventana Probes resolution
Thanks to all of you who offered your help. I did have a conference call with Ventana this afternoon and all my questions were answered. I'll share with you all what I know so no one else needs to fret needlessly. I didn't receive 2- 4ml vials of EBER Probe. I only received 1 when I ordered it. When you order the 760-1209, you should get 2 vials of Probe 4 ml each. I will be getting the second vial sent out to me tomorrow. So now I will have enough Probe to fill my ISH prep kit. It was a production/shipping error. If Customer Support could have explained that to me this morning, I would never have been so frustrated. Water under the bridge. I have put Ventana back on my Christmas card list. Also, they cannot give you the "recipe" but if your "recipe" doesn't work, a TAS can tell you what to try to fix it. I hope this info is helpful.

Re: [Histonet] Ventana Probes
At 100µL per dispense, to do 50 tests you will need 50 x 100µL = 5000 µL = 5 ml You do need to dilute it René J. --- On Thu, 4/28/11, Angela Bitting wrote: From: Angela Bitting Subject: Re: [Histonet] Ventana Probes To: "Angela Bitting" , "histonet" Date: Thursday, April 28, 2011, 11:10 AM Sorry folks, in my impaired state of mind I made a boo boo.

Ventana is on my last nerve with this new probe configuration of theirs. I have a 4 ml vial of EBER Probe here in my lab. I am told that this is good for approx 50 tests. So at 100 ul a dispense, I need to bring the volume up to at least 15 ml (probably 16ml). Not a soul under Ventana's employ will tell me what probe diluent to use, or what else I am supposed to do with it. I'm ready to add vodka. If anyone out there has transitioned to the new EBER probe configuration, can you give a gal a break and contact me? Sorry for the Thursday rantanyway Happy Lab Week everyone!!!
