Hi,

I appreciate if someone can answer my question. I am going to stain rats' brain microvessels with ER(estrogen receptor) antibody. We know how we can isolate the vessels but this is the first time to stain them.
I have the microvessels in PBS 1X and do you know how I can fix them with paraformaldehyde and mount them on the gel-subbed slides? I did 2 ways: 1- mount the fresh microvessels on the slide and wait overnight to get dried and then fix them in 2% PFA for 30 min and after that washing steps and the rest of IHC protocol or 2- fix the vessels with 2% PFA in the tube for 30 min and then mount them on the slides and wait overnight to get dried.
Please advise me with any idea,
thanks so much,

I am having a problem with my tape coverslipper.  The coverslipper is not positioning the tape properly; when the slides are coverslipped, they have a 1mm overhang on the right side of the slide, would anyone know how to adjust this?
Thanks,

Hi gang...
I am hoping that someone out there can lend me some assistance. We
currently are using paper slide labels( 0.875 in by 0.875 in) on our
Pathology slides, an old label printer (Genicom Model 1025) and Meditech
Magic software.  Our dilemma is this... we no longer can find the ink
ribbons for our printer. Is there anyone out there who is using the same
system?
In about 1 1/2 to 2 years, we are going to be changing to a new software
(possibly McKesson), so we are not looking to really buy anything
expensive at this time. We just really need to continue using the paper
labels until we have the change over.

Thanks for your help.
