[Histonet] table for cutting (Histology)

Tue Sep 18 12:35:56 CDT 2018

Good Day, Mehndi:

One of the colleges around here used this bench in a pinch:
https://www.sears.com/craftsman-premium-heavy-duty-8-ft-workbench-with/p-00946638000P?plpSellerId=Sears&prdNo=5&blockNo=5&blockType=G5

I don't know if it's too large for your space, but it's certainly sturdy. 

Cheers,
-CH

We used to get almost all of our IHC reagents from DAKO, but when they fully merged with Agilent their prices went up exponentially.  We changed to Biocare Medical and have found that almost all of their reagents work better than DAKO's did.  Some of our antibodies had to be diluted out more, but that saves too so its kind of a win-win.  Anyway, their background reducing diluent is the one that we use, but they do have several different versions and their rep can tell you which one is most like the one that you were using from Fisher.  I'm not sure who the rep is up there, but I can give you contact info of the person I would recommend talking to if you like.  

Happy Monday!!

Hi all,
                It seems Fisher has stopped carrying the "Ultra Clean Diluent 125ml". (Item TA-125-UC). Can anyone recommend someone else who carries it, or a likely replacement? We use the Po-Link 2+Broad HRP detection kit.
Cheers!
Sandy

Does anyone use a table to put their microtome and cut?  I'm trying to find one and I want to make sure that it is stable enough for cutting.

Thanks,
