Hi histonet,
We have a brand new Leica CV5030 Coverslipper and I am looking for the
quickest drying media available. We are currently using Micromount by
Surgipath/Leica and it is not drying fast enough.
Any suggestions are appreciated as we have to package our slides for
shipping and the media is either sticking to the bubble wrap or creating
circles on the slides from the pressure of the bubble wrap.

We are shipping them out same day. At this point, if I can not find a
quicker drying media I will have to delay the shipments by one day.
What temperature do you dry them at?

Hi All, was wondering how everyone does their IHC for H. pylori.  Do you
automatically run it on all biopsies of the stomach, or do you screen first
with a giemsa and run IHC on the ones that are negative by giemsa?  Thanks
for the input!

Our pathology groups decision was to run IHC for H.pylori on all stomach
biopsies.

If you only need to keep QC records for 2 years, is it the same for QA
records?

We only run IHC for H. pylori when the appropriate inflammatory background
is present or when the patient has tested positive in the past and we
receive a follow-up gastric specimen where bugs are not identified on H&E.

Running H. pylori IHC on every gastric biopsy is uncalled for and borders on
"Fraud and Abuse".

We run the H. pylori IHC stain on all stomach specimens to improve turn
around time; however, when an inflammatory background is not appreciated by
the pathologist the charge is removed before sign-out and we eat the cost of
producing the slide.

Those of you that like freebies (like Dako mousepads, Thermo pens and Sigma
coffee mugs) will be amused to learn that Cell Marque are giving away packs
of playing cards. Each card shows a section stained with a different
antobody (one of theirs of course, together with the catalogue number).

No, I don't have shares in Cell Marque, but I am continually amused by the
different methods companies in all walks of life use to  advertise their
products. Some are, well, just original!

Quality Assurance outlines all required QC activities used to identify
policies
or procedures that are not working as desired, especially those that are not
immediately apparent from following routine QC procedures.

The purspose of a QA plan is effectively achieved by providing a mechanism
for
identifying problems so that corrective actions can be taken to ensure,
reliable, and prompt reporting of patient test results.

Quality Control is to assess the effectiveness of the quality control system
to
identify inaccuracies in test systems prior to result reporting. To verify
the proper use and evaluation of quality control data by testing personnel.
To
assess test methodologies based upon past QC results.

It will depend on how your scope is configured. On our system, when using
the three you have outlined I routinely use CY5 or Alexa633 (or equivalent
in far red category) on our scope. It's actually my personal favorite. If
you have any doubts check out the spectral viewer on Invitrogen and also BD
Bioscience's website.

Hello,

I'm working on a Zeiss confocal microscope. We use chiefly Alexa488
and Cy3 together with Hoechst 33258. Can anyone suggest a fluorescent
protein which can be discerned amongst the Alexa488, Cy3 and Hoechst
33258 emission spectra? I was thinking maybe mBanana?

Thanks

Agree, switching to Leica with disposable blade holder changed my life.
Never looked back. Love the CM3050S.

Hello all,

I am looking to budget for a new cryostat and was wondering what others are
using. I would like one that is safe, well lit, roomy, and has some sort of
on-board decontamination routine. All input appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is anyone currently staining for RFP in FFPE or frozen sections using a
detecting antibody? I am curious as to what anti-RFP Ab would be
recommended. There is one I plan to try from Invitrogen (rabbit anti-RFP)
but of course would love feedback if people have used one in particular.

Thanks, Andrea
