Hi Patti,

There are several Linear Stainers on the market currently.   Hacker and
Leica Microsystems both make a batch type linear stainer that
is capable of staining 20-30 slides per rack in a linear fashion.   I do
believe, however, that the bicycle-chain type stainer you are inquiring
about is only made by Thermo-Shandon.   Realize, however, that this stainer
uses individual clips to hold the slides which are loaded continuously
one at a time.   It is a workhorse, as you say.  Good luck in your search
for a stainer and to make your search even easier, click onto the web sites
of the companies mentioned and have a look at what we have to offer.

Hi all. I'm looking for a linear stainer for H&E's, but I can't remember
the
manufacturer. Does anyone know the name? It's the "bicycle chain" type
stainer. I used one a long time ago, and for H&E's it was a good workhorse.
Thanks for the help.

Patti Loykasek
