[Histonet] Junior Histo worker seeks suggestions forsmall project.

[Barry R Rittman]

As far as I understand, the industry making  hot dogs etc. usually have
a requirement that the grinding process is such that tissue within a
section can only be identified above a certain magnification. This is I
think chiefly so that the public will not be put off by finding easily
identifiable items in the meat. Thus the need for histology of these
meats - in fact the sections are really interesting. We should have a
competition at conventions to ask attendees to identify individual
components although this might decrease the consumption of these
products.
Perhaps there should be a subdivision of histopathology, a title of
wiernerologist, patho-frankologist, patho-bolognologist spring to mind.
Now that the seed has been sown perhaps we shall get some interesting
suggestions to take our minds of the more serious problems?
Barry

Sue,
I once did a little project at AFIP involving a Slim-Jim and a bunch of
different special stains to demonstrate what was actually in those tasty
little meat snax.
