Dear all,
Can anyone suggest a decent, reliable antibody to mouse cytokeratin 17
(polyclonal or monoclonal is fine) I could buy? There are many on the
market, but I want to be sure it works.
Best wishes
Nick

Ok. I have to wade in. We actually have a policy on floaters. Our policy
calls for the pathologist to circle the floater on the slide and mark it as a
floater with a cell marking pen. That way the "floater" is identified forever
on the permanent slide. He/she will notify the Supv or lead tech
I couldn't agree with you more, Liz! I am from a GLP lab as well and we
have to undergo validation for every single new piece of equipment we
acquire otherwise we are not considered GLP-compliant. Who is to say
that your new stainer is going to stain slides in the same manner as
your old stainer?
Your goal is not to have floaters. If you get one, your policy should set
out to determine the cause of these incidents. You should track who did it
(in a spreadsheet), where it happened (grossing, embedding, cutting...).
Then you should have a meeting every so often with people from the lab and
Document it and see it there is a trend.

Since no one is perfect and floaters WILL happen at every lab, what do
It is difficult for you to find a "policy on floaters" because any lab will try
to not get any floater.
It could be said that 1 floater is 1 too many. The goal is "0" floaters.

Is anyone using the Peloris tissue processor with isopropanol instead of

I am interested in your experiences.
We are demoing the machine just now and have been very impressed with

Is anyone of you aware of a supplier of an antibody directed against α-2

Hi, all!
I wanted to check in and see if anyone was possibly interested or knew of
someone who would be interested in a few day shift opportunities we had
posted in Illinois, Kansas and Oklahoma? All three opportunities are
offering relocation assistance, full benefits and competitive salaries.
We are using Spot Light her2 Cish from invitrogen (manual, FDA approved).
