I have used orange peel for years. I never had a problem with the pathologist not approving the control for use on patient stains.  Its "naturally occurring", a petri dish would not be naturally occurring in my mind.

Once I verified the orange peel does stain the fungus the same way it does in human tissue by doing a side by side staining the pathologist were fine with it.  Actually happy I was able to save some money.

Most controls you get from other source are not human either, usually it some type of animal. Try the orange peel. I did like the idea of using the some type of moldy meat or having your micro department do something for you!!!!  I have never tried that, but if it works that would be awesome.   Thanks,

You actually need the performing lab's disclaimer.  We've sent stains and other procedures to several other labs.  We refer to the disclaimers as ASR's (analyte specific reagents) and build templates for each lab's specific comments in our APLIS.

Good Morning...

I have a question about the FDA disclaimer for Immuno's.  If we are not doing the staining of Immuno's in our lab, but our Pathologists are interpreting those that are stained at our reference lab, are we still required to put the FDA disclaimer on our Path reports for those antibodies that require the disclaimer?

Thanks so much!!

  Valerie,

 If your pathologist is reading your IHC send-outs then he is most likely contracted through that third party company (he gets PC compensation) and they do the technicial work. In our case, our pathologist signs out our routine H&E Final Surgical Pathology Report and when he reads the IHC  he uses their report portal to issue those results using their letterhead with the FDA disclaimer attached at the end of the report. Sometimes he may incorporate the IHC results in the original report as revised  but we always piggy back the third party IHC report (with digital pathology images) to the original.

It might be best to contact the IHC company representative and find out excatly who is legally responsible for the disclaimer - the technical service provider or the proffesional.

Electron Microscope.

Even if you did a periodic acid-methenamine silver stain (PASM, Jones),
which in my opinion is the best histology stain, since it is a silver stain,
you can get different thicknesses of basement membrane (bm) by leaving it in
longer or shorter than is optimal for that patient's bm thickness.

Hi Jim,

I have found a couple of ways.  First, if you are fortunate to have a micro
department nearby, they can make a very nice one for you (a Histotip in
Sakura's Histologic).  Another method, which doesn't work the best,  can be
moldy orange peel.  And the easiest, you can create your own (moldy
sausage) or even take some human tissue (fresh lung works the best) and
leave it with some moldy meat, then you can get a great one.

Good luck!

Dear anna

I had while working for Baker chemicals, a customer in Germany who had a
similar problem there H&E turned purple. the red disappeared. the
environment around the section contained little red droplets (only visible
under high magnification). after some time (because at first they clamed
noting was changed) it became clear  that they skipped ethanol 100 % and
just used the cheaper 96% instead. when evaluated they tested 3 slides and
that worked. but after 300 - 500 slides the xylene was saturated with water.
eosin being soluble in water migrates from the section to the water emulate
in the xylene.

so I would test the ethanol you use. 3 times 100% is in my view a must.



I also on time in Scotland was confronted with xylene that was sold as non
recycled, but in fact it was. and sadly the supplier used an open container
to speed up cooling down. the rain was the source of the water. it lead to
several problems and took a long time before the we could find the source of
these problems.



wish you success with solving yours.

regards piet

We have tried the moldy peel also but the pathologists did not like this
and would not accept any controls of this form.  I don't blame them they
want to see it naturally occurring.

As well we have used mushroom and other moldy food products but it only demonstrates the mold and not tissue elements.  But you can mince tissue and mix it with the fungus or mold so it one big segment and this gave more desirable results.

We have tried the moldy peel also but the pathologists did not like this and would not accept any controls of this form.  I don't blame them they want to see it naturally occurring.

Good Morning...

I have a question about the FDA disclaimer for Immuno's.  If we are not doing the staining of Immuno's in our lab, but our Pathologists are interpreting those that are stained at our reference lab, are we still required to put the FDA disclaimer on our Path reports for those antibodies that require the disclaimer?

Thanks so much!!

We have used the Faxitron instrument for the past 3 years at multiple sites. Faxitron creates a digital image of a specimen quickly and safely and a t multiple magnifications. The instrument is placed in either Surgery or Surgical Pathology (SP) and we use it primarily on breast cases to assist in orientation and gross dissection, identifying radioactive seeds or locating micro calcification. The instrument is easy to use, safe and you can connect to multiple LIS systems and a Hospital PACS. There is no code to charge for use when used in SP, only when used by Radiology or Surgery.

There is only one company that manufactures and sells the instrument:
Faxitron Bioptics, LLC
Tucson, AZ
877-910-0030

The are willing to bring a unit to your site for demonstration and you may be able to talk them into leaving for a evaluation.

I made some controls years ago that we are still using today.  I used bread mold and streaked it out on a blood agar plate.  Once the plate was covered, cut the agar into cubes, wrapped it in lens paper and processed.  Cuts and stains beautifully.

I have used orange peel for years. I never had a problem with the pathologist not approving the control for use on patient stains.  Its "naturally occurring", a petri dish would not be naturally occurring in my mind.

Once I verified the orange peel does stain the fungus the same way it does in human tissue by doing a side by side staining the pathologist were fine with it.  Actually happy I was able to save some money.

Most controls you get from other source are not human either, usually it some type of animal. Try the orange peel. I did like the idea of using the some type of moldy meat or having your micro department do something for you!!!!  I have never tried that, but if it works that would be awesome.   Thanks,

Does anyone use hot water rinses on their h&e slides. If we use cold water our slides are very light and inconsistent.
We stain on an automatic stainer.

I do not, but it seems that you need to use hot water. If it works for you, keep doing it.
?
The rationale behind this issue is that water after the staining is not just waterto wash the sections, but also to change the pH of the hematoxylin so the stain is, lets say, "developed" and this is a process temperature driven (the speed of the reaction is directly proportional to the temp.) and if you are having weak results with your running water (evidently cold) and good with hot water, this demonstrates that you need hot water in your specific circumstances.
I hope I explained myself
Ren? J.

Hi Fellow Histonetters, we have started having this problem with our G.I. biopsies, and not all of them, just the odd one here and there.  After staining, when looking at it on the scope, you can't get it to focus in one plane.  It's not cutting artifact, because we have recut the block making sure it is well cooled etc. before picking up and staining the section.  The cells, when in focus, look fixed and properly processed, and the staining is the way it should be.  I have no idea what is causing this artifact.  Has anyone else seen this and can shed some light on what is causing it?
