Hi.   I need to find some used tissue-tek block file cabinets.    Can you
contact me if you have some I could purchase or take off your hands??

 

Contact Roy at 11z <@t> comcast.net <mailto:11z <@t> comcast.net>     FYI:  I would be
using these in my lab and not planning on selling them.   

 

If you know of someone who may be selling used files let me know too,  I
cannot afford new ones.   They just cost way too much.

Wow, I feel like a newbie! 28 years, registered. HT 13663, 1988, HTL 1369, 1992. Electron Microscopy Technologist, #604, 1982. 

Like most, I never heard of "histology" until I walked into a hospital lab on my first day as  an EM tech. I had seen slides made in college, but no one ever mentioned it could be an actual profession. I was more taken with the electron microscope, and there was (is) a 2-year program at the community college in the town I grew up in (Delta College, Stockton, CA). So AFTER getting a BA in Zoology, I went there to get a marketable skill. At that time EM was still used for tumor dx, so when I started it was about half tumor, half kidney. I was lucky enough to get involved in histology and set up the IHC lab at the small community hospital I worked at (as an EM tech) and so ended up phasing myself almost out of an EM job. The IHC took over all the tumor dx from EM. Later I left EM altogether and did IHC exclusively for 15 years. But, like most, I learned Histotechnology on the job but was lucky enough to work for a pathologist who believed in developing his techs - to the point of paying for meetings out of his own pocket. Only now do I know how fortunate I was to work for someone like that. Because of him we had developed a culture in the small histo lab (4 men!!) of learning. We studied together one night a week for the HT exam and all passed (and the practical!). Again, that was a fortunate experience, not very often seen in labs.

Can anyone using the Ventana Symphony share its pros and cons with me?  Would you recommend this stainer?



Thank you

Hello All,

I have a customer who needs microvascular (MVD) staining and quantification of tumro vasculature, where staining is typically done using CD31.  Is there anyone who can do this and willing to forward their information to me?

Thank you
