[Histonet] Reagent rotation

[Ian R Bernard]

We do it by number of blocks- At or after 350 blocks the processor is changed.

We do it by the number of Runs.  About every 6 run for rotations and 12 runs for a full change out.   But we also have another processor as well.

What is the normal procedure for changing the reagents in the tissue processor? We have a Sakura VIP6. Should the schedule of changing be based on number of runs vs. number of blocks processed? About 80% of our blocks are small GI biospies.

Thanks in advance for your input.
