Patsy,

We use the Shurmark labeler made by Triangle Biomedical Sciences (TBS).
This labler uses the foil tape for labeling and is impermeable to any
solvent.  This is a great labeler - it is connected to computer and does not
have to be hand fed 1 cassette at a time.   The TBS rep in our area (South
East is Fran Adams at phone # 919-384-9393, or E-mail:
SE@trianglebiomedical.com.

We are in the market for a cassette labeler.  I know this has been discussed
here but at the time I was not interested, but now that I will have 26,000
samples for the prostate cancer study, I am not looking forward to labeling
by hand.  Vendor's are encouraged to contact me personally with their
product information.
