A ventilation system designed for use in our tissue processing laboratory at the National Center for Toxicological Research is illustrated. To facilitate the large volume of research tissue processed daily for our histology labs we use ten Autotechnicon Ultras that process a total of 100 mice daily. This number of tissue processors presents a problem of adequate ventilation.
In order to facilitate the large volume of hematoxylin and eosin (H & E) slides generated by 18 experiments from various programs at the National Center for Toxicological Research, a rapid staining method became imperative. Automated staining with the Gam Rad Stainomatic was decided upon using Gill's no. 1 hematoxylin with a 30-minute staining schedule. Presently, 1,080 slides per instrument per day are stained with a good dependable stain. The cost of this H & E staining method is 0.15 cents per slide.
