[Histonet] marking blocks and slides, Cathy Mayton

[Michelle Becker]

Have you tried Statmark Pens from StatLab Medical Products?  We have had
very good luck with them after trying several pens.  It writes dark and
stays on through both staining and processing procedures.  They also last
much longer than secureline markers.

     I have tried this and the writing was so light we had trouble
seeing the numbers. How do you keep the writing dark?

Good morning,

We use Sharpie brand industrial fine point marker to write on our blocks
and slides.  The marker goes through the processing and staining with no
problems.  These markers can be bought at office supply stores or maybe
even at your local Wal-Mart, KMart etc. and are less expensive.

Hope this helps.
Cathy
