The Journals, the glass or the spirits, which of theses was the inheritance
here? By the way a long time ago, in the 80's I remember a specimen being
sent (or at least it is what I was told) to the AFIP in tequila as fixative
and dehydrant. We all mourned the lose of a good tequila as that is what
was used. I think a cheap one would have been just as good.

Subject: RE: [Histonet] doing immunos by hand
Hi,
We use Shando's "Sequenza" to do only a small number of slides these days
since a DAKO Techmate came along. The Sequenza has the option of an
organiser for several sets of slides but this is not necessary for small
numbers of slides The slides are arrayed each against plastic plates, in
groups of ten. The plates forms a well at one end and solutions slowly
drain past, accross the face of the slides, buffers antibodies, chromogens
, whatever.
In terms of a manual system it is sweeter than using trays, boxes. Once
set in the clip there is no handling until the end. The waste is held in
the container, staining is even , no ringing of the sections with a pen,
sweet. Having done batches of a hundred with trays and then the sequenza,
my money is on the latter.

i would like to see what the options are as far as doing these things

primarily for derm specimens, HMB 45, S 100, KI 67.
any help is appreciated,

Dear Ronald,
Just use the anti-mouse EnVision for use on rat tissue specimens. However,
before using it you have to mix the EnVision with 10-15% (final
concentration) normal rat serum. Leave the mixture for 60 min at room temp
(or overnight 4C) then use it. All the cross-reactions are abolished now.

Subject [Histonet] IHC polymer detection system for rat tissues
Has anyone found a successful polymer detection system (i.e., Envision or
others) directed against a mouse monoclonal on rat tissue. We tried one but
got a lot of background staining, I suspect from cross reactivity with
closely related antigens. Our standard IHC approach uses an anti-mouse,
rat-absorbed secondary antibody, but I would like to get the added
sensitivity of a polymer-based system.

40 Billion is alot to spend on a machine, I would shop around. Sequenza
chambers serve us quite well as well as the automation. All the stains you

Hi Everyone,
Up here in Bar Harbor, Maine, we are trying to get an idea of whato
ther Histology Labs are doing - how many people they have working in them,w
hat they consider reasonable capacity, how much work they do in a year,
how diversified they are, etc. We are not interested in salary
information. We have created a bench-marking survey on our home website ath
ttp://www.jax.org/sci_survey/ . Click on the "Histology" link and it willt
ake you right to the survey. You'll notice there are other surveys on
there as well so if your institution/hospital/business carries out any
other activities (such as Electron Microscopy), please feel free to
complete those surveys as well. It only takes a few minutes to complete
and will remain completely confidential. Anyone who participates in the
survey will receive a copy of the results (with names, etc. deleted) withina
few weeks. We're aiming for the beginning of October to send the resultst
o all the participants. We will need your email address in order to sendt
he results to you so make sure you include that.
So we'd really like to hear from you. I know how active the
Histonet is so I'm hoping for a good response as I'm sure everyone will bei
nterested in the results. For anyone who is not interested in
participating, I apologize for using up your time. Please delete this
email.
Thank you!

Hello fellow Histonetters,
We are having a big problem with air bubbles under our coverslips before
filing. We use Richard Allan mounting media and the slides in the trays are
placed in an oven set at 58 degrees C overnight. I am thinking the oven may
be part of the problem but was wondering what the process is out there in
Histo-land.

Air bubbles form because there is not enough solid material remaining under
the cover glass after the solvent has evaporate. Among possible causes:
* RAS put out a bad batch of mounting medium (i.e., more solvent than
usual)
* Not enough mounting medium being applied
* Accelerated drying (e.g., oven too hot [58 degrees C is not too hot,
in my experience]) -- how soon after coverslipping are slides put in oven?
Right away could make a negative difference.
Simplest first solution is to add more mounting medium, while appreciating
that way too much degrades image quality under 40x objectives -- which would
be the subject of another discussion.
Little useful information has ever been published about mounting media. The
best information was published as a 2-part article in Stain Technology in
the 1950s. Authors were a committee chaired by the late and great Dr. Ralph
D. Lillie.

Charlotte,
I think Gary's got it. 58 degrees C should only be too hot if the
slides were placed in the oven too soon after mounting as we have
found--although, decreasing the temperature will indeed slow the solvent's
rate of evaporation. Try delaying your oven cure time and see if that
helps.
Good luck!

OK Bryan,
It will take a little while, but I shall start. I wonder that someone has
already scanned some journals, like "path and bact", stain tech and
histochem journal. Or at least found the annual indexes to scan. There are
Stain tech 69-83 and Histochen J 79-86 beside me now, and I wonder at the
quantity of published material.
Maybe I shall ask the IBMS, I remember there is/was a historical section
that may have moved from preservation to digitising. Not the same as
"Brass and Glass", but.
Dave

Hi,
I have a big favour to ask. I am the author of the StainsFile web site
(http://stainsfile.info). One of my aims for this site is to include
all published staining methods. I know that's quite futile, but I would
like to get as many as possible.
I have the IMLT journals between 1962 and about 1975, when I let my
membership finally lapse after emigrating to Canada. Is there any
possibility that I could get you to scan or photocopy any histological
methods involving techniques or theory about dyes or metallic
impregnations (almost everything except immuno- or enzyme histochemistry
as these are outside my limits for the site) from any journals you have
apart from those years? I would like to be able to include the material
on StainsFile, and I have been wondering how I might be able to get
details from Canada. Unfortunately, none of the British Techs I know
over here has kept their copies, or have let their membership lapse.
Here's hoping.
