[Histonet] Antibody Validation CLIA

[Paula]

Hello,

 

We've been discussing about the quantity of slides to run as a validation
for IHC antibodies. We are governed by CLIA, and we would like to know if
there is a set number of slides to run for a particular antibody we would
like to bring in-house for Validation.  I think CAP requires 20 slides..?
And so we are asking if there is  a requirement with CLIA to run a certain
number of slides, or is it up to us (the laboratory director) to decide how
many slides to run for Validation/Verification.

 

Thank you in advance

Paula
