[Histonet] Leica Autostainer XL and Leica CV5030 glass coverslipper

[Denise Piontek]

Hi Lisa:
We have the Leica with attached coverslipper and absolutely love it. Clean your coverslipping racks once a week by soaking in xylene to remove excess mounting media and store coverslips in desicator to avoid condensation. I have had no problems. Hope this helps,

  Hello all,
   Do any of you use the Leica autostainer XL? What are your
  likes/dislikes? How does it compare to Sakura? Do any of you have the
  Leica glass coverslipper? Likes or dislikes especially if you have it
  connected to Leica stainer. We also have a Thin prep imager. Do any of
  you use the Leica coverslipper with the glass coverslips with the
  imager? Does it read the slides okay and do you have any problems with
  cornflaking? Any feed back will be greatly appreciated. We need to make
  up our mind soon and the powers that be are pushing us to hurry up.
