Re: [Histonet] Frozen Section TAT
Sue, Yes you do have your hands full. We also do multiple parts on skins, nodes, etc. etc. It is stated on the QC sheet and as part of our procedure that it is based on the initial frozen. If there is an outlier because of multiple parts that is stated as the justification for the lapse in procedure. Beatrice Sullivan, HT(A.S.C.P.) HTL , AAS, CLSP(N.C.A.)

RE: [Histonet] Tracking Systems
Yes, at your accessioning, grossing, embedding, cutting, sendout(slide distribution, and archiving (filing)areas. It has so much more in terms of reporting and the data you can generate from putting a date and time stamp, and a person's name at every point in your process. It also allows you to communicate from one bench to the next with special instructions and to log quality issues at each of your benches.

[Histonet] unstained paraffin tissue slides storage
Hello, I found here a few disscussions regarding the storage of tissue slides but I did not find a clear answer to the questions I have. I would really appreciate an answer from anybody that has experience with this. I need to store for long term a bunch of unstained tissue slides for the purpose of doing immunostaining even in a few years from now on. Unfortunatelly they were stored for about 3 years at room temperature. What it is usually recomended: to store them at -20 degrees Celsius? If yes, is it OK to store them in the regular 100 slides boxes? And when you need to start an immunostaining just take them out of the freezer and let them at room temp for a while before starting the stain or what procedure do you use? I heard some labs keep them in nitrogen gas containers. Do you have any info about this? Any imput is appreciated!

RE: [Histonet] unstained paraffin tissue slides storage

RE: [Histonet] unstained paraffin tissue slides storage
Hello, We have been storing our slides in very small Ziploc bags at -20 and find that this method works fairly well. We have done a study(Berez et.al in process) and slides stored in this fashion for 5 years stain better than freshly cut slides from the same blocks that have been stored at room temperature.
