If you are using a LIS, can it integrate printing blocks and slides? Is the cost too high to add the printing capability? The cost of equipment is so cheap compared with one lawsuit. It would also reduce the stress of loosing your job over a labeling mistake. Just seems like a win win for everyone.

[Histonet] m.bovis
Hello Histonet! I know this has come up in the past, but I have not been able to find a solution in the archives...I am trying to get a mycoplasma bovis protocol worked up and am having tremendous difficulties. My antibody strain is M23 but it does not seem to be working very well for my IHC applications. I have tried several antigen retrieval methods, antibody dilutions and detection methods to no avail. I am thinking I need a new source of antibody...Can anyone suggest a commercially available m.bovis antibody that works for them? Any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

We use the Autostainer XL as well. Just got a new one with the attached coverslipper. The old one is now in IHC for deparaffinization and running down before coverslipping.

[Histonet] Human anti human
Hey ya'll I was going through the archives to try and find a solution to this, but the last post was in 2008, so I thought I would throw it back out there. I need a human anti human polymer...is there one yet? I looked and couldn't find one through my normal places. As to not start the conversation that is on the archive up again. I have tried several approaches already to no avail. I tried FITC, I conjugated the primary human anti human with HRP, I've tried TSA (and tons of other companies version of TSA)...no luck... My antibody just isn't staining...I even tried putting it on the tissue and PBMCs at a 1:1 dilution...nope...any thoughts out there? I want to rip my hair out Sarah Goebel, B.A., HT (ASCP) Histotechnician XBiotech USA Inc. 8201 East Riverside Dr. Bldg 4 Suite 100 Austin, Texas 78744 (512)386-2907 ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
RE: [Histonet] Celestine Blue for Technovit 7200
Why not use Sanderson's Rapid Bone Stain with Van Gieson picrofuchsin? You can get the Sanderson's and one or all of three counterstains for this particular kind of staining in a kit from Dorn and Hart Microedge (www.dornandhart.com).

[Histonet] QMS MANUAL
Does anyone have a basic format or table of contents they would be willing to share regarding a QMS (Quality Management Systems) Manual? I am in the process of getting one together and am a little overwhelmed. We are supposed to base our QMS on NYSDOH...as if that helps. Even a link in the right direction would be MUCH appreciated. You can message me privately, if you wish. Thanks in advance, friends! ADRIENNE ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
RE: [Histonet] Celestine Blue for Technovit 7200
Thanks Jack, what's the difference between the celestine blue w/alum hematoxylin and the Sanderson's? What's the difference between the Sanderson's and the Masson's Goldner's? Have you tried the celestine blue stain?
