[Histonet] validation

[Rene J Buesa]

Dorothy:
At the end you are going to use tissues from your laboratory to do the tests, and you do not know how other labs processed their tissues. Although it is not absolutely clear how the processing steps (other than fixation) can affect the reactivity of a tissue, it is always better not to introduce more variables than necessary, so I would use tissues from my own laboratory.

Is it better to use a lab's own tissue for validation in a microarray
for Ihc purposes or would it be passable to use TMA's from another
source??  Thanks for your opinions!!
