[Histonet] Special Stainers

[Mike Schlicht]

We are currently using the DAKO Artisan for silver stains, and have some 
problems with uneven staining every now and then, usually when the 
dispensers are close to being empty, so we stop using the kit when there are 
5 tests remaining to help reduce some of the problems.  We had a demo of the 
Nexus stainer, and found that the result were about the same.
