[Histonet] AFB Control Question

2017-02-15 Thread Marcum, Pamela A via Histonet
Good morning, We are attempting to find AFB controls from human sources. We would trade if we have something you need and we have available. Does anyone have blocks they might share or trade without upsetting our HIPPA people on either side. I am really not interested in buying slides as we

[Histonet] Small Slide Dryer or Oven

We are looking for a small slide dryer (hold up to three 30 position short racks) that will reach 65C and when opened return to temperature within 1 or 2 minutes. It does not have to fancy and is only used for special stains so it is not a constant use item. Pam

When I was at NSH in Austin, I talked to a vendor with a very different type of Histology. It was very soft and far less porous than the normal blue sponges. Does anyone remember this or can you tell me where to get them? I believe the company was from the UK with offices or distributors in
