Dura Edge Blades
From: | Jim Ball <histo007@hotmail.com> |
Our institute is in the process of trying to find a reason for the poor
sectioning we have started to experience, after receiving a new shipment of
dura edge blades. The trouble sectioning is not isolated to just one tech
the whole histology section is having problems. There has been no change in
any of our processing. The lot number we are having a problem with is 1135
003, 1135 006, 1135 007, and 1135 008. I have been sectioning tissue for 25
plus years so the answer to everybody first question is yes I have tried
adjusting the angel and while this helps a little the blades do not seem to
hold an edge and I am going thru about twice the normal amount of blades I
usually use. We have send one shipment back and the story from the
distributor is "No one else is having any problems with our blades." They
replaced the shipment with the same lot numbers and we continue to have the
same problems
Thank you in advance
