Joe,
You can still use your Dako antibodies (we have several) with the Ultra; or
anyone else's antibodies for that matter. I don't work for VMS, in case you're

For a smaller lab the Intellipath from BioCare works great. Since it's has the
capabilities to do continuous load or a STAT run the workflow works great.
I've had mine for three years now and the service and support have been the

Thank you for this information, Christie. We are a much smaller lab and would
be using the new system as our primary IHC stainer. Workflow considerations
are a primary concern for us in addition to staining consistency and ease of
