Hi All,
 
We are using Ventana XT for our immunostaining.  We tried using "Plus" 
slides made by many vendors.  The current vendor's pricing is way too 
high!  With other vendors slides  we have been having problems.  Please 
let me know where to get some plus slides which are reasonable.  I know 
the recommended slides come from erie but I am not quite sure about 
vendors who carry it and how much they charge.
 
Thanks

Nirmala,
 
We use Fisher's charged slides 12-550-15, which I'm sure are made by Erie. Pricing will depend upon your contract with a particular vendor. SurgiPath aka Leica has charged slides that work well also. If you want the etched Control Box Slides we purchase from Cardinal.
Hope this helps!
