Hello Histonet!
Looking for some advice regarding ER/PR/Her2 controls. I'm able to buy
commercially TMA blocks containing varying levels of positivity for ER, PR, and
Her2. This work nicely because you can have a negative and varying levels of
positive control as a same-slide control. But ou
Hello Histonet,
Can anyone recommend a commercial source of ER/PR/Her2 control tissue (array
blocks would be preferred)? I'm looking for something similar to the breast
analyte control from Cell Marque, which is RUO:

That's interesting, we've been seeing warping with the Leica coverslips. I
wonder if there's something in common in their manufacturing. We've been using
a mixture of Superfrost Plus (Fisher), Basix (Fisher), and Platinum line
(Mercedes Medical) all with good results. The 'Basix' seems to be
Hello Histonet,
I'm looking for some recommendations on biohazard bags for specimen disposal.
Currently using Brighton 3.0 mil 44 gallon bags and they have occasional

some residual formalin present. I'm willing to p

Ventana/Roche bought out MTM which had the patent, so they're the only vendor
you can get it from. Since you're using Bond you obviously don't want it in a

Hello Histonet,
Does anyone have experience with an air filter/purifier for use in the lab?
I'm looking mainly for residual toluene fumes. Everything is always below the
limit but I have an employee who is unusually sensitive and I'm trying to help
out. I found one from Fisher for an astrono

Does anyone know of any baskets (preferably spaced) that are compatible with
the Leica Peloris? I'm looking for alternatives to the astronomically-priced
factory baskets. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mike

Hello Histonet,
Does anyone know where I can find a cryostat vacuum? I've used them in the
past but can't seem to find a manufacturer.
Thanks!
