Hi,
There is a Timm stain - like protocol from Angenstein

I don't know how these aligning tools work, but I always used an
inexpensive level from the hardware store. You need one that can read in
the vertical position.

There are microtome aligners that can help. They are available for Leica,
Microm and Shandon Finesse. We used to use them here before we got all of the
same microtomes. They worked pretty well. We purchased ours from Newcomer
Supply. They're super easy to use and take lots less time than th

Many minerals can be "seen" in tissues as an unspecific "black" particles when
reacting with reagents like ammonium sulfide in the Timm's procedure for copper
in Wilson's disease cases. This method requires treating the sections with 0.1N

There's a wonderful company called Oligo's, Etc. (Wilsonville, OR) that
synthesizes very affordable oligoprobes. But you have to supply the
sequence information. Susan

The Board of Directors of the NMSH met on Saturday to discuss the future
of the Society. Because membership has declined to less than 10% of
eligible members despite concerted efforts over the past five years to
increase interest and participation, the decision was made to inactivate
the Society.
Hello Histonetters!
We are finding ourselves coming short on the time remaining that we can
offer ISH Probes through Ventana. We have not heard when or if ISH
(In-situ hybridization) will be offered any more through them. Does
anyone out there know of other companies that would offer ISH?
Thank y
Well said Bob!

I'm on the same page as you Jenaine- we get blocks from all over so we are
constantly rearranging the block holder. We also do have a histocollimeter
to get the Microms back in line (it doesn't fit on the Leicas.

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if LFB stain works well for staining nerves in GMA
sections? My pathologist is looking at sections of these stained
elsewhere and she does not feel the myelin is staining as it should.
Any insight on this particular combination? Thanks in advance.

We use the microtome alignment instrument, which can be purchased from
several companies. It is in our weekly checklist that all microtomes
have to be adjusted (checked) with the microtome aligner. All
microtomes are cut at the same angle also!

Hi everybody,
I have some fish specimens which have been exposed to toxic levels of
manganese. The researcher is hoping to see manganese localised on the gill.
Lillie mentions the use of benzidine to stain for manganese. I will try DAB,
but my searching on the net has drawn a blank.
