Hello,
I'm working on a Zeiss confocal microscope. We use chiefly Alexa488
and Cy3 together with Hoechst 33258. Can anyone suggest a fluorescent
protein which can be discerned amongst the Alexa488, Cy3 and Hoechst
33258 emission spectra? I was thinking maybe mBanana?
Thanks

We still treat the specimens as though they were different specimen parts (A,
B, C, D, etc...) I doubt that the physical arrangement of the containers
affects the billing if you are still treating each core as a different
specimen...

It might take a Phaldelphia lawyer to figure the multiwell Simport thing out.
However, I am aware that the American Urological Association and conversations
with other pathology leaders advocates treating one container as one CPT 88305.

You need to get an autodialer. Search for a company in your area. If you have
Biomed or telecommunications in your facility they should be able to install it
for you. I purchased a land line autodailer from Radio Shack years ago for
three Sakura VIPs. VOIP autodialers are available as well.
We have an alarm system that monitors all of the refrigerators and freezers in
the lab and our processor is tied into that.

One of my colleagues suggests that he place his endoscopy specimens into

Most clinician I know have other staff in the procedure room. Why not have
someone other than the clinician place the specimen in the formalin. This
way you get the best possible fixation for the patient.

Any suggestions are appreciated as we have to package our slides for

Hi All, was wondering how everyone does their IHC for H. pylori. Do you
automatically run it on all biopsies of the stomach, or do you screen first
with a giemsa and run IHC on the ones that are negative by giemsa? Thanks for

We only run IHC for H. pylori when the appropriate inflammatory background is

follow-up gastric specimen where bugs are not identified on HE.
Running H. pylori IHC on every gastric biopsy is uncalled for and borders on

Those of you that like freebies (like Dako mousepads, Thermo pens and Sigma
coffee mugs) will be amused to learn that Cell Marque are giving away packs of
playing cards. Each card shows a section stained with a different antobody (one
of theirs of course, together with the catalogue number).
Its the most powerful treatment Ive ever used!...
