Greetings , fellow Histonetters,
I'm reaching our for advice on education. I've worked in research histology
ages ago, set up a lab and did everything from organ harvesting and
grossing to processing, staining ( routine, special, IHC, and IF). Then I
went the management route and have been in lab
Katherine:Our lab did the same thing a few years ago and I received operating
instructions for this system from a sales rep with Biocare that I know. I'll
send this document to you offline. I can also put you in touch with the guy
from Biocare. As Colleen said, Biocare doesn't sell or support
The Biocare certain was called the Nemesis. They are phasibg them out but
might be willing to come assist you.

Ask Biocare or Dako. Unbeknownst to most of the public, it is the same exact
unit they had years ago. Lab Vision made all 3 units. Their brand, Biocare and
Dako. Lab Vision just put different branding on the various units when they
were sold.

Hello Histonetters,
My company has acquired a refurbished ThermoFisher Lab Vision autostainer 3602D

Is there anyone in Histonet land who is using both the Optiview and Ultraview
on the XT and ULTRA at the same time? I'd like to ask a few questions, please
email me.

Questions on CAP Anatomic Path Checklist. Are the microwave questions referring

Hello Histo-netters!
I have a Bond RX and before I try to recreate the wheel, I thought I would ask
some experts. Has anyone used a goat primary on this instrument and if so how?
Also, has anyone had success with TUNEL on this instrument and if so, could
you share your knowledge?
Thank you all
So here at TJUH, we are color coded and all blocks other than routine and
decals are cut in this manner. One tech is assigned rapids (green), another
tech is assigned bone marrow and cell blocks (yellow and blue) and one tech is
assiged out satalite hospital (pink cassettes) All are complete

I have a couple of questions to ask where there is no right or wrong answer,
just curious as to the process that other labs use.
1. After processing, how do you determine the order in which to cut and stain
the blocks..numerical or priority driven? 2. Do you adhere to the 6-72 hours
of fixatio
Hi Everyone.
I am trying to troubleshoot my IHC on frozen sections.
My sections are human tonsil at 7 uM. On charged Superfrost slides.
They are stored at -80 after drying for 1 hour.
When I use them for IHC, I take them out of the -80 and let them air dry for 1
hour before placing them in co

To get a good idea of how fixatives affect shrinkage go to the library
(yes, the library, this info will not be online) and get a copy of

That said, I suggest fixing for 5-7 days, 48 hours is a minimum.

Hi all. Having a bit of an internal debate here, so I would like to get
the opinions of some of you in Histoland, please. Here are the
questions:
1.When fixing with 10% NBF, for how long should you fix and what
volume ratio of fixative:tissue should you use?
1. Generally 24 hrs for 2-3 mm thick piece. At least a 10:1 formalin:tissue
volume.
2. Room temp or 4oC - I've heard debates, and I've heard it doesn't matter,
but we do it at 4oC.
