I had a biopsy today that was nearly impossible to see on the sponges during embedding or in the block. I've heard mention of marking these with eosin to make them easier to see. Has anyone done this? Or do you use some other type of marking dye for this purpose?
Thanks for your input!

Dear Rebecca,
Yes this is possible. just don't use a too strong concentration. The eosin
should give a slight pink color on the tissue after processing and after
embedding.
Good luck,
Maarten

Hi Thomas,
Are you looking for true life expectancy or what is reported for depreciation? In my experience, most tissue processors never die, but only need to be retired due to lack of available support/parts or because a lab requires newer technology.
Also in my experience, a "better" model comes out soon after I have purchased one. So the life span is probably 20 years after you wished you had a different one. :-)
Best wishes,
Teri

Hi All,
Does anyone know the life expectancy of the Gemini H&E stainer? My boss has asked me this question because we are in the process of requesting for a new one.

Hi?If you are using buffered Formaline so the Eosin color will not resist until the end of tissue processing.I recommend to add small amount of stock Eosin to the last alcohol in theTissue processor.?

This is so true!
I had a Fisher Histomatic automated slide stainer that was manufactured in 1985 that I used until the building took a direct lightning strike JUST LAST YEAR!
My old VIP is still going!

We place a small drop of concentrate straight on tissue.

We use safranin at the grossing station and it is a dark pink at embedding. Works really well in our hands. Added plus is no fluorescent issues that you can have with eosin.
