OT RE: [Histonet] Tissue-Tek Xpress x50

Hmmm... this sounds like a commercial to me.  I’ve been flamed for a lot
less on this list. (Maybe not as often as Joe the Toe, but flamed none the
less).  ;-)

Editor’s Note: The emoticon [;-)] at the end of the above missal indicates
humor.

>From Webster’s Online Dictionary:

PATHOS  

Pronunciation: \pā-thōs 
Function: noun 
Etymology: Greek, suffering, experience, emotion, from paschein (aor.
pathein) to experience, suffer; perhaps akin to Lithuanian kęsti to suffer 
Date: 1591 
1 : an element in experience or in artistic representation evoking pity or
compassion 
2 : an emotion of sympathetic pity

Place in Tragedy 
...the PATHOS, or suffering, of mankind. This distinction goes back to
Aristotle, who, in the Rhetoric, distinguished between ethos, a man's
natural bent, disposition, or moral character, and pathos, emotion displayed
in a given situation. And the Latin rhetorician Quintilian, in the 1st
century AD, noted that ethos is akin to comedy and pathos to tragedy. The
distinction is important...

IT’S HUMP DAY!...

Hi Della,

Yes, my current company is handling / selling histopathology products. I am
now working on a project with all pathologists who are evaluating both Xpess
and Pathos. 

Regardless of my company's partnership with Milestone, I used to be a histo
technologist too for 4 years and that is the reason why I have personally
chosen Pathos over Xpress. The software is far more flexible and user's not
being "lock" with any special reagents. In order word, its an open system so
no worries ..
 
Everyone should really play with Pathos to bring histology to the next
level. 
 
Sue

Sue, what is your affiliation with Milestone?
Isn't your company a partner with Milestone?

Hi Everyone,

I suggest you should try Pathos, microwave processor from Milestone. It is
much superior in processing quality which I have tested it myself. It has a
delay start feature allowing an overnight processing using microwave
technology so no worries of overheating the samples.

Trust me it is so wonderful. You may want to visit:

The last retort is a heated, empty "bath"........you should NOT leave the
tissue there for very long at all.

Both Xpress models have been engineered to process in a continuous flow of
cassettes not for overnight (delayed) processing. Perhaps you could leave
the cassettes in the last retort, but I am not sure about that nor it is
recommended, and it would defeat the design of the instrument.

  Hi,
Is anyone using the Tissue-Tek Xpress x50 out there? Do you like it? Can you
do traditional overnight processing or is it only for rapid processing? Any
feed back would be helpful...
