"Taking control of the situation is key."
It's very interesting to me that most of the responses have to do with
institutionalized bureaucratic ideas (safety, insurance, liability, regulations)
rather than how to get things done.
I was thinking about how Virchow and Henle and other pioneers
I had heard that CLIA was relaxing things and is not requiring a new # to
work from home right now. Best to check on the regulatory but FFPE isn't
typically infectious. The ideal spot would in the garage and not the
kitchen though.

Agree. 8-10 microns cut just prior to staining.

I do not agree with this in our current situation or actually any situation.
There are quidelines in place with CLIA, OHSA and CAP for protecting not only
the patient but also the employee. Whether research or not.

I have done it, but you are right, I had my own private business, not sure why
it would be a problem, especially for research.

I agree with this point and as far as clocking in and out, I would think you
could work out something like getting paid piece mill, perhaps charge per slide
or block cut, that way you could do it on your own time and not have to clock
in.

I agree,
Slightly thicker makes the polarisation easier to see (personal experience).
I would love to see a study comparing section thickness Vs polarisation
characteristics.
Anyone interested? (being a kids hospital we rarely see amyloidosis)

Ken, yes, 8 to 10 um. The extra thickness make the bi-refringence under
polarized light brighter. Also the deposits can be variable so even with the
light microscope the reddish deposits will stain stronger with thicker
sections.

I work at a Dermatology lab and our protocol for amyloid is 8-10 microns.

Hello All. We have always cut all of our histology control slides at 5m. We
were told today that it is common practice to cut Amyloid at 8m? Is this your
experience?

Does anyone use another vendor besides CAP to perform their PT
requirements?
If so, who do you use and how do you record it for inspection purposes?
I am looking for a PD-L1 PT specifically but will take any other options as
well as we are trying to help our budget.

You will need to make sure all pertinent SOPs and EOPs are followed, as well as
all safety guidelines/protocols. Just because it is not human tissue doesn't
mean that it can't have its share of nasties.

Make sure of insurance coverage and safety for the employee and that they are
covered in case of injury - are they still clocking in and out in some
fashion. just thinking in a bigger box.

Jaime,
I don't see a problem with a research setting. If it was patient care, CLIA
would need to inspect the set up in the person home. The same goes for our
pathologists who read slide at home.
