RE: [Histonet] Leica CV 5030
Micromount (Surgipath- now a part of Leica). 21 gauge needle. No problem. Make sure volume set is correct for the media. -Original Message- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Blazek, Linda Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2011 9:12 AM To: histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: [Histonet] Leica CV 5030 Anyone using the Lieca CV 5030, what mounting medium and what size needle are you using?

RE: [Histonet] Leica CV 5030
Linda, I addressed this issue before. The smallest gauge needle that Leica supplies for the CV5030 is a 21 gauge needle which we found to be too big (too much mounting media came out and made a mess of the slides). We found a company on the internet that sells re-usable metal needles in all sizes. The link is: www.dispensinglink.com We got a 23 gauge needle (1/2 inch shaft) pk/12 for @$25.00. We tried different mounting media, currently use permount (in a ratio 4 parts Permount : 1 part CitriSolv).

RE: [Histonet] Leica CV 5030
Thanks again for the information Peggy. I did have your email on your needles and mounting media. I was interested in what everyone else was using also since we are now ready to order a different type of mounting media than what we are currently using. -Original Message- From: Sherwood, Margaret [mailto:msherw...@partners.org] Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2011 1:43 PM To: Blazek, Linda; histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: RE: [Histonet] Leica CV 5030 Linda, I addressed this issue before.
