[Histonet] Steiner and Steiner method/H. pylori
From: | Derek and/or Lynda Leopold |
Hi list,
Would anyone care to comment on the Steiner and Steiner (microwave)
method for spirochetes? I susupect my lab's pathologists are interested
in it for viewing H. pylori, yet in all the "HP" talk on this list I
have yet to hear it mentioned. How does it compare from a tech safety
standpoint? As a brand-new tech, I still do crazy things like read the
safety warnings on ingredients, and that whole uranyl nitrate
radioactive thing is sort of bothering me. We use no protective
equipment when doing this stain (which the doctors still call "Warthin
Starry", incidentally, but hey---they're making the big bucks....)
I'll take anyone's 2 cents...
Thanks,
Lynda Leopold
