[Histonet] Tissue Processor Advice

[thecitan <@t> yahoo.com]

I recommend the new tissue tech.  I use it in my lab and its reliable and intuitive.

I strongly warn against TBS. I use one in my other lab and its been nothing but trouble. Its chemical storage is unreliable and leads to cross contamination.

Dear Histonetters!
I need your advice in Tissue Processors. The one we currently use, Tissue
Tek VIP 3000, is archaic and has finally died. So we are looking into buying
a new one. I know that Thermo and Leica both have processors, as well as new
Tissue teks, but I wanted to get opinions if you have a preference of a
machine, pros and cons of each. I mostly process tumors, with occasional
mouse organs thrown in.
Any suggestions will be very helpful!
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
