However, if I use anti PCNA I get +ve results One can argue that this is because of the long ? life of the latter/the habit of immersing the whole brain for extended periods before dissection to Pwax sized blocks, for processing Also, one has to lose the 1st few superficial sections when re-cutting ( where there may be degradation of antigenicity) Important request Respect Carl Carl Hobbs FIBMS Histology and Imaging Manager Wolfson SPaRC Guys Campus, London Bridge Kings College London London SE1 1UL 020 7848 6810 From criley at udel.edu Wed Jan 8 08:53:27 2025 From: criley at udel.edu (Charles Riley) Date: Wed, 8 Jan 2025 09:53:27 -0500 Subject: [Histonet] Histology on transwell seeded cells Message-ID: Has anyone ever done histology on cells seeded on transwell?

When I was working at Hartford Hospital we obtained our MNF-116 (pan-keratin) antibody from Dako (now Agilent) because they were the only supplier.? Now, many companies carry it including Abcam, Bio SB, Novus Biologicals, and Thermo Fisher Scientific to name a few. I would also recommend that IHC not be called a "stain" and use a more appropriate terminology like "assay" or "test".? IHC is far too important to be called a "stain". Richard W.

Message-ID: Job opening for core histology manager at the University of Miami's Diabetes Research Institute: Sr. Research Associate 3, SOM (A) in Miami, Florida, United States of America | Research at University of Miami Solo position in a research environment with much autonomy, primarily providing investigators with frozen and paraffin sections along with simple stains e.g. H&E and PAS. (Some of the samples can be quite inventive and challenging!) Curiously, the current manager was not invited to contribute to the job listing, which contains boilerplate text and some creative writing, so keep the following corrections in mind: --There is no laboratory staff to supervise or mentor, although there may be some training of research lab personnel on the operation of shared equipment. --Not much in the way of collecting and analyzing data; more of a service provider to researchers. --Does not include writing articles/manuscripts. --Does not involve radioactive materials. --Most submitted samples already are fixed. --Hasn't involved immunohistochemistry for many years---that function typically is performed in the research labs. --No urgency to the frozen sections; does not involve surgery in a hospital setting.

Message-ID: <000401db6e34$ffaacce0$ff0066a0$@gmx.at> Dear all! Do any regulations or official recommendations exist, that refer to the necessary number of sections per block? I think of GI-biopsy-blocks (10x10 mm). Some mount a ribbon with 4-6 serial sections on one slide. Some work with sliding microtomes (like me) and mount 4 sections with little trimming in between. The background for the question is, that we want to eveluate if there is a diagnostic difference between mounting 3 or 4 single sections on the slide for GI-biopsies. (to reduce workload and scanning time) It would be nice to get your experience with that issue.
