I have a lot of slides that I have precut for stains. These slides are
only labeled with the accession numbers and were not used as any part of
the patient diagnosis. I was
Happy Friday Histonetters,
Hope everyone has a great weekend while I pull some thoughts together about
histology PI studies. I am looking for any help possible from the histonet that
can help me with a Performance Improvement Plan. I am now required to come up
with two studies a year and have
We are required to do 3, a pre-analytic, analytic, and post-analytic. So from
that you can do things like specimen id (whether received from the OR that way,
or the cassettes mislabeled during grossing, or the slides mislabeled). You can
compare % of cytology/histology cases correlated, TAT
I was able to see the Logos in Italy and it is a very nice piece of equipment,
very robust and with many safety features.
For its price it is a much better investment than the Xpress 50 and produces
the same quality of processing with the same mixed technology (microwave and
convection).
For
Whatever study you are going to do for your PI program has to do with some
mistake or defect you had previously detected.
Lets say that one of your FS took over the 20 minutes required by CAP.
You should have taken action in finding out what happened. Then you should have
followed up with such

We are releasing a version of the Histobath in the next few months. In fact,
we had the beta at out booth at NSH and are implementing several of the
suggestions we received there.
I hope that one of those suggestions was to try
Hello,
I am a newbie to this type of work. We have flash frozen tissue in OCT
(Optimal Cutting Temperature) compound for some unique experiments
that we need to carry out. We want to use a AO-860 sliding microtome
to cut large slabs of OCT embedded tissue. Does anyone have any advice
on how this
Thanks to Matt Mincer and Terri Bishop for sending me information
about Histochill. I'm glad they're promoting the 3M fluorocarbon
solvent as an alternative to methylbutane and acetone.
You can download the PDF with I think the same information - Google

Anybody know what this item
Can anyone tell me what is a good Ab to use for staining myeloblasts in bone
marrow specimens? I would appreciate any input.
Thanks

Hi Francis,
I don't know how thick your sections will be, but in general the AO-860
(fantastic microtome by the way) is not designed to cut fresh tissue. Certainly
the relatively thick sections brain sections (50-200 micron) won't stand up
very well in my experience. How thick are you trying
Unless you have means to maintain the frozen tissue frozen, you will not be
able to do it because the tissue will thaw and sectioning will be impossible.

Hi Histonetters
I have the Ventana xt, H pylori from cell marque and my pathologists says there
is too much stain precipitate and was wondering if I could do something about
it my protocol
is mild cc1 standard
ABY H pylori 32 min
ultra wash
and counterstains
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
We've been seeing high background staining on abt 10% of our HPs as well. We
use Cellmarques predilute on the XT as well. Been happening for a couple months.

charging them. Please let me know because I have a student from UTA who are
working on fiber optic on nerve tissue that wants to do plastic embedding. Our

Hi,
Got a walk in freezer? Really, cutting large slabs of OCT embedded
material is just not possible on a sliding microtome unless you keep that
microtome in a -20 freezer. You could cut small blocks on it by mounting the
OCT on a large chuck and surrounding it with dry ice. This will really
Hi All,
I am wondering if anyone knows of any particular publications or studies that
have examined manners in which one can predict whether an antibody in a large
panel may work in IHC. Let's say you are faced with 50-100 Abs and you need to
determine which works in IHC, but all you know is
