Formalin is formalin is formalin so look for the supplier able to sell it the
cheapest and with the lowest S/H BUT I strongly recommend not to buy formalin
in bulk to neutralize and later aliquot because it is an extremely dangerous
activity.
Also do not try to recycle formalin. Always buy
Histonetters,
Like everywhere else, my lab is trying to find ways to save money. One thing we
are looking at are the labels/ribbon we use for our Ventana EBAR printers and
our Ventana Vantage Zebra printers. Currently, we order labels/printer ribbons
for both types of printers directly from
Hi,

We order our Vantage printer labels form Eastern Laboratory Services Division
and save about $50.00/ roll of labels and ribbon (you get 4 rolls and 4 ribbons
per case). You need to be specific with the label measurements and the type of
ribbon, otherwise they send standard options. If anyone

We use the Sakura Glas (original) with the Ventana Ultra slide labels. It uses
a suction cup to grab the slide and works fine. But the Sakura Glas 2 grabs the
slide with pincers on the side, like the Leica coverslipper (we use the Leica
CV5030)and the Ventana slide labels sometimes get stuck
We tried another vendor for ebar labels, FloPro Tek, easternlabsvc.com, but
they didn't hold up in xylene.

I think you need to order the StainerProTek, we have been using them for months
and they do well in all solutions.

I took the exam when it was first offered, when it was a Specialist exam
with 100 questions. It's now a Qualification exam with 50 questions. But I
don't think it has changed that much, just fewer questions.
If you haven't been to the ASCP website on the Safety Exam, do that first.
