[Histonet] tissue processor

[Prof. dr. Wim Van den Broeck]

Dear colleagues, dear friends,

 

We are lucky to have a budget to buy a new tissue processor. At the moment,
we are interested in the following instruments (in alphabetical order):

*        Sakura Tissue-Tek VIP 5 Vacuum Infiltration processor

*        Shandon Excelsior

*        Leica ASP 300 advanced smart tissue processor

*        Microm STP 420 enclosed tissue processor

 

I would like to hear your comments, experience with the different
instruments, the pro's en con's, etc.

 

Thanks in advance for your helpful reactions.

 

Kind regards,

Wim.
