Hi
1) Our college is trying to save on reagents. Most textbooks say that
Verhoeff's working solution is stable only for a few hours. Someone told me
that he used to keep the same solution for up to a month. Has any of you tried
to reuse Verhoeff's working solution? If so, how long did you keep

Even CDC (Hansen's Disease Center) will send out mycobacterium leprae controls

I had this issue a couple of years back. Found out that there was a delay of

Hi HistoNetters:
I have run into quite a problem. My lab currently processes all tissue types
from 3 different sites. Recently, we have been getting complaints from one of
the sites that the biopsies have a nuclear artifact. It is described as
washed out or poor to no nuclear detail.
The first place I would look is to what may be happening before they reach me.
If it's only one site with an issue, it sounds more like an issue at collection.

Can someone help guide me on the right direction regarding how to organize
daily QC sheets. Currently we have one per case (this is time consuming and I'm

Your decal time should be according to your mice age. Four weeks old mouse
normally need four changes of EDTA in two weeks time.
I think your process time is a bit too long. If your four weeks old mouse

A few years ago we got cited for not having the fungal control be in tissue.
The citation was from a HQIP survey we participated in from CAP. We were using
