[Histonet] Chromogen remover

[Oliver Kiel via Histonet]

Dear Histonetties,

our lab manager likes to use a chromogen remover for paraffin-embedded
sections. I can´t find this product online. Maybe you know how we can
prepare a chromogen remover?

Thanks in advance for your advices.

Oliver

Thanks to the suggestions for flooring. We are finding the concept of moving 
all our block and slide cabinets to allow us to lay new flooring overwhelming. 
We may opt to have the housekeeping crew put on a new coating that supposedly 
is more slip resistant. WE are also still researching our disposal of 10 year 
old blocks. Thanks for the suggestions.

[Histonet] Best Glass Coverslipper?

[Cooper, Brian via Histonet]

Hey Histonet!

What's the best automatic glass coverslipper out there?  I only have experience 
with the Sakura tape slipper, which is AWESOME, but alas, we can't get one 
here.  Space is definitely an issue; would love to hear your experiences!

Thanks,

Thank you Lester, this is a great middle ground! As someone who was a
little put out by your totally off-topic emails, I am totally OK with you
promoting your blog post inside a legitimate histonet post.

Good luck with your issues.

yours,
mills

[Histonet] Results of My Histology Survey-Finally!

[Va Paula Sicurello via Histonet]

Well Listers,
I finally get around to posting my survey.  Only 35 people took it but it still 
provided useful information and I got an A in my class.
Thank You to the 35 who participated
All the data:             23 HT's, 8 HTL's, 4 with other certification (2 with 
HT/HTL) took my survey
             24 years of experience average.               Range 5 
to 45 years.             49 blocks per hour, average cutting.           
  Range 19 to 120             69 slides per hour, average.                      
Range  35 to 160/hour             7 average number of staff.        
                 Range 1 to 22
             278 blocks per day per lab, average.         Range 10 
to 1000
             467 H slides per day, per lab, average.  Range 10 to 
1500
              92 IHC slides per day, per lab, average      Range 2 
to 300
             19 special stain slides per day, per lab, average     Range 1 to 
100

 My take away from this was that we are getting older, we are working faster 
with fewer staff and we use automation to our advantage.
I think none of this is surprising to you.    


Sincerely,
Paula
