[Histonet] endogenous alk phos block and HIER

[Amy Porter]

Just curious to know what everyone thinks about pretreatments for endogenous products and Heat induced retrieval methods.  Do you do the blocking before the retrieval or after?  I am always worried about effecting the pH treatment from the retrieval if i pretreat for endogenous after retrieval.  On the other hand if I block first and then retrieve, am i re-opening what i just tried to get rid of while retrieving.  I hope this makes sense to someone and opinions would be greatly appreciated.  I know i will get lots of good information, as always - Thanks in advance for all the help.
