The first thought coming to my mind: poor girl/boy cutting the whole day.
I like to cut, but I'am also glad to be ready after max. 3 hours (because of
smaller workload, four techs cutting at the same time).
Our prostate "menue": 2x HE à 4 cuts, 1xIHC à 4 cuts; 10 blocks per patient,
without prelabelling; sliding microtome, 20-25 min
In the mean we do 60-70 slides (with 1-4 cuts) per hour, without
prelabelling, with walking in the staining room, with telephone, ....

In my opinion it's a big difference, if one cuts at high speed for a few
hours or has to do it the whole shift with the same concentration and
quality.

Betreff: [Histonet] record slides?

How many slides have you cut in an 8 hour day? One of my techs today cut 658

prostate bx slides in 7 hours. Just curious.
