Dear all,

	There has been a bit of discussion on the histo mailing list recently
about the possible causes of vacuolated nuclei caused apparently by
processing.  The finger is being pointed at recycled zylene/ethanols & the
Leica TP 1050.  I know that there are a few Leica TP 1050's in Aus, I
bought 1 myself in the last Lab I was in, I thought mine did a great job,
but do others have this problem with nuclei?

Hi everyone

Further to my request about nuclear meltdown and processing, it appears
that others have had similar problems with the TP 1050.

I would be interested to know of these problems and their solutions.
Please e-mail me direct with any responses.

Many thanks.

Regards

	I have some expereince with the TP 1050 in a couple of labs & have never
heard of this problem.
