We are using Lysol I.C. for disinfecting the ventana benchmark. I thought I
purchased it from Cardinal but I'm not sure now where we got it. Are others
using this for their machine and where are you purchasing it from? Thanks so
much.

I believe Ventana owns the rights to that antibody now. It was previously owned
by MTM Labs.

To calibrate a pH meter, we use purchased pH buffers at pH 4.0, 7.0, and
10.0.
To perform the IHC method, we use TBS (pH 7.6) with Tween 20 as our rinse
buffer.

Hi all-
Our histopathology lab is looking to
set up an IHC component to service the request of our clients. All work is on
animal tissue. We will probably run about 1,000 IHC slides the first year and
hope to increase the workload each year. Some stains we would run would
include CD4, CD8,
Doing ihc on animal tissue is very tricky, if for no other reason than you are
trying to standardize an antibody across multiple species. You will need to use
every trick in the book and invent some of your own to get reproducible
results.
I would steer clear of any platforms that do not let
I totally agree with William. I do animal IHC and I am, using the
Biocare Nemesis, which be the same as the Dako platform. Completely open
so you can do what you need to at a cost you can afford

We run the Ventana Discovery XT at our lab and average 15,000 antibodies

Hello Helpful Histonetters,
I have some samples that were fixed in PFA, placed in acrylamide gel and
then treated with iodine for microCT at another facility. The investigator
now wants to follow up and get HE's on these samples. I know how to deal
with the iodine, but my question is this:
I work in animal tissue only. I also agree that an open autostainer system
works best, since you may have to run multiple dilutions and incubation
times for the same antibody because of the different species' reactivities.
You may also need multiple types of reagents to cover detection in
So Mike,
It appears you are a sales director for the company, which makes your opinion
null and void. Sorry.

I've used many different platforms and have liked most. Currently we
are using BioCare. We LOVE our BioCare Intellipath FLX for our IHC
platform. It is very cost effective, completely open, and has very user
friendly software. BioCare has been a super company to work with.
Fabulous customer
Hi all,
I am trying to look at eosinophils and neutrophils in FFPE muscle sections.
Does anyone have experience with the Wright stain or a Wright staining kit on
these types of sections? Or possibly a suggestion for a different protocol to
visualize these cells?
Thanks!
Becky
Sorry everyone, how long due most labs retain unstained glass slides? I have
the CAP requirement but due they have requirements for unstained glass slides.

I second this! Since I've not worked with animal tissue I didn't know quite
how to respond to the question but in regards to flexibility, ease of use and
unquestionably remarkable support I would not hesitate to check into the
Intellipath FLX.

I'm working with a lab that stained cat gonads with Warthin Starry.
We're looking for Bartonella bacteria. In the first batch that was
stained, some nucleii filled with the silver stain, something I've see
in published images. In the second batch it appears that nucleolus
filled with silver.
Becky:
You can use Giemsa for tissue sections. under separate cover I am sending my
article on the subject.
