Just wanted to thank everyone for all the helpful input in regards to the 
Ventana BenchMark Ultra.
We are seeing some non-specific background staining on our slides. It is not so 
much an issue for
our nuclear/membranous stains, however for our cytoplasmic stains, it could be 
interpreted as a false
positive. We bake our slides offline at 65 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes, then 
Depar online (EZ Prep) at 72 degrees
Celsius. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again,

Subject: [Histonet] Ventana LCS (Liquid Cover Slip)

Anyone out there having any issues with the Ventana LCS?
When you are cover slipping are you seeing any water/residual LCS on the slides?
I was wondering if we should dry our slides before cover slipping instead of 
running them down? Any information would be greatly appreciated!
