Good Morning
Another thing to try is different slides. We have had issues with bad
batches/lots of slides - even the Fisher Superfrost plus. Especially if your
purchasing department buys in quantity and then stores the slides in hot
warehouses. This seems to negate the charge on the slides -

Good Morning,
I am looking to purchase a used tissue processor in good working condition for
our student laboratory. Please contact me if you have something. I would like
to have a tissue processor for the fall semester if at all possible.
Thank you.

We are evaluating tissue processors to replace one of our 1980's VIP. So far
we have looked at the Thermofisher STP420, Leica ASP6025, VIP6, and we may look
at theThermofisher Excelsior ES.
I would be interested in the opinions of other customers which processor they
would go with and why.
Hi Jim,
We have four Excelsiors here at UAMS in the Histology Lab. We bought two to
replace very old VIPs over 2 years ago and were very happy with the processing
and the safety. We have less exposure to fumes as well as ease of use. As
supervisor I am concerned about safety. If I find

Does anyone out there have any problems with using recycled xylene to clean
the tissue processor? I was just told that we should not use recycled xylene
to clean the tissue processor. How about using recycled xylene for either
processing or staining?

I used recycled xylene for any and all tasks where pure xylene was needed.

We have been using recycled xylene for years and have found that it only
present a problem on the clean cycle of the processor.
Everywhere we have not experienced a problem, so we use new xylene on the
cleaning cycle.

I found an old box of Tissue Tek 4728 cryomolds in our Mohs lab. They are
round with a small tab on the side. We like them so much better than the
disposable embedding molds sold for paraffin embedding. I have seen cryomolds
that look like the same ones for paraffin but are they any thinner
Hi Carol
PSL (Pacific Southwest Lab Supplies) sells the round Cryomolds.

I did not know such a product existed until now. How do these molds work?

We have the VIP 6 and really like it..user friendly and faster TAT.
We have been having rotary valve concerns within our Leica Peloris tissue
processor and the technician as well as Leica technical services both feel it
is because we have been using recycled xylene in the cleaning cycle. I was
The cryomold have been moved on the website: check under specification
accessories of the cryostats. I hate when they move things on websites but I
guess they are employing the grocery store theory (move thing so customers will
see other stuff to buy as they look for what they really need)
Let me be as frank and cynical as possible: properly recycled xylene will
produce xylene pure and unadulterated.
Those opinions from technical services that also provide non-recycled
xylene have a vested interest in making you believe that their product is the
ONLY one to use. Never believe
I know the round ones you are talking about. I like them too. The other square
shaped are also good. I have some order # 4566, and they are about the
dimensions of a metal biopsy base mold with a extended edge.

Dear Histoland,
Does anyone have experience using Histochoice for IHC, in particular for mouse
brain tissue? Cryoprotected vs paraffinized material? I am currently looking
at both structural proteins (e.g., tubulin) as well as transcription factors
(e.g., b-catenin and Pax6). I normally use
Dear All
I recently received a request for HMB45, MART-1, MiTF, S100 and Tyrosinase on
sections of toe nail. Our laboratory will usually soften the toe nail in
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) either before processing or sometimes after trimming
the paraffin block and floating the block in a jar of
