Hey histonetters,
Ive created a community page for histologist on Facebook. Please join or
like Histo-ville. It a page for people to make friends, troubleshoot, or

We want to purchase a latest model machine for thin prep/sure path along

Can you share your experience regarding both types of machines,
1) Which type of system is best
2)which machine will provide an auto stainer
3)which model of the recommended machine is best
I never really thought it would happen but it has...

There is a good article in the JOH, June 2011, Vol 34, Number 2, Gadgets for
Floaters prevention in the Histopathology Laboratory by Izak Dimenstein that
addresses ways to help prevent them. He discusses floater sources in the

Whatever we use here, if you remember, doesn't compromise IHC results,

HAPPY FRIDAY TO ALL
For those of you that have requested a brochure for the SCSHT fall meeting, we
will be mailing them out next week to the techs on our mailing list. Also
continue to email me your request and when I have the brochure in a PDF format,
