[Histonet] Coverslip Instruments

[Terri Braud]

We use the Tissue Tek Glas with our Ventana labeled slides with no problem.  The key is to insure the label does not hang off the edge in the slightest. However, it does not put them in a tray, however, that function only takes about 10 seconds.

Subject: [Histonet] coverslip machines
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know of a cover slipping machine other than the Roche HE 600, in which the slides are loaded in 20 folder type trays.  The slides are not picked up by the machine, rather the coverslip is applied to the slides in the folder.

Or does anyone have good luck putting slides from a Ventana ultra with clear plastic overlays on an automated coverslipper?  Our old coverslippers always had problems with the labels sticking to the robotic arm that lifts the slide.
