[Histonet] Automated special stains

[Weems, Joyce]

We have the DAKO Artisan and are pleased with the company service as well as the stains. 
GMS is good. We use the Warthin Starry - not sure they have a Steiner.

If there would be one change, I would wish that the stains could be started as ordered instead of by batch. 

Hope this helps!

Hi everybody:
 
I'd like feedback on the automated special stain equipment being used
today.  I need something that does all the traditional stains but also
silvers...mainly GMS' and Steiner's.  I am most interested in an open
system so as not to be locked into using a particular vendor's reagents
if possible.
 
Vendors welcome to email as well.
 
Thanks,
