Are you batch staining or you placing a control on every slide; if batches are 
used  a good controld block will last  6 month or more. Placing a control on 
every slide needing a stain will last 3 month. I will try to get you a block 
free of charge. Cynthia James H.T

Hey folks,



I am looking to purchase some blocks with positive H pylori tissue.

I have never done this before as we always had plenty of positive tissue in the 
wet tissue room. Has anyone had to buy tissue?

If you have, who did you find to be good to work with and how is

it sold, by the block by the case by the pound ( LOL). Really could use some 
direction on this. I just cant keep enough acceptable positive H pylori control 
slides on hand and am always running out. Would like to have a 6 month supply 
to work from and be able to keep a head with.



Thanks

Hello,
                Can anyone recommend a band saw for pathology? We are looking 
for a new band saw for use in necropsy and research. It has to be a "meat" band 
saw, as workshop band saws aren't compatible with wet tissue.
A table-top model is preferred, and cheaper than a floor model. (Plus, the 
floor models all seem to come with a sausage-maker, which is pretty gross.)
                If you have used a table-top band saw in your pathology lab, 
I'd appreciate hearing from you.
Cheers!
Sandy

Re: [Histonet] Histonet Digest, Vol 164, Issue 10 mycoplasma on agar

[Steve McClain via Histonet]

Too bad, Hoescht stain is rapid and sensitive (UV) for mycoplasma.

They can try staining direct smears w difquik giemsa. 

Or fix agar plate in Carnoy's and slice out and process to paraffin for 
microtomy and staining.  IHC  can be done from sections if needed.
These 1 micron bacteria are at the practical limits of visibility.

[Histonet] holes in GI tissue

[Paula via Histonet]

Hello,

Our pathologist is complaining about "holes" in the GI tissue. This is what
he mainly reads, so it could be other types of tissues and the other
pathologists don't complain about it.  Anyway, he showed me an example, and
I see what he is talking about. I think it comes down to microtomy, such as
being too rapid when facing-in or having a dull knife. 

 

Maybe it could be another reason, but in any event, can anyone offer any
suggestions on how to remedy this problem?

 

Thanks in advance..I really apprecieate the feedback.
