[Histonet] Leica Peloris

[Mike Pence]

We use the Peloris and have had no big problems with it. Certainly not
that affect our stain, however, we do not use it xylene-free. Her may
lay the problem.


I think the FDA question should be answered by someone from Leica.

Moving into a new lab and have tested several processors.  Need some
info on the peloris.  Good and Bad.  We demoed the machine for about 2
months and had an issue with our biopsy tissue staining too light (H&E).
We could not get this problem resolved - we were running our tissue thru
the xylene free process.  Also any truth to the rumor that I heard today
thay the FDA has placed a hold on this machine?
