We use a large piece of filter paper, separated into 4 quadrants with a
timer for each quadrant.  We dry at 70 degrees celsius for 15 minutes.
You may want to contact Mopec about an upgrade to the unit that they
have recently discovered that is a major improvement to the longevity of
the unit.  It is a redesign of the blower motor box which controls the
heating function.  It is a great unit, in my opinion.  Jennifer

Subject: [Histonet] RotoDry form Mopec

We have just been gifted a RotoDry from Mopec which we will be using as
a slide drier.Can anyone give me the temp and time that they are drying
slides for routine H&E. Presently we have only small slide dryers so a
few ideas on how people track the slides in and out would be helpful as
well.
Thanks
