[Histonet] RE: Automating muscle and neuro stains

[Denise Piontek]

 I was hoping to determine the level of interest in having muscle and neuro stains automated? I am speaking with a vendor about the desire to automate many of my stains: ATP, NADH, SDH, COX, Acetyl cholinesterase, Luxol Fast Blue, etc..... 

 

Would your lab use this technology?

Would you do this work in house instead of sending it out if it were automated?

How many tests does your lab do per year in this category?

Would you prefer this was a feature on your automated special stainer?

 

I will compile the answers.

Thanks in advance for your participation.
