2015-10-21 Thread Sheila Fonner via Histonet
  Good morning histonetters,
Is there anyone out there who is currently doing ISH HPV probes on the Leica 
Bond?  If so, where are you getting your tissue for positive controls?  Any 
help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Histonet] (no subject)

2015-10-21 Thread Amos, Lori (VDH) via Histonet
I have a beyond repair tissue processor that needs to be dispose of.  It has 
not been in use for a year. All the solutions have been emptied but the 
paraffin has solidified in the chambers. We found a recycling company that is 
willing to remove it for us but they are requiring us to first prove that it is 
not  biohazardous. How does one dispose of their tissue processor?
