[Histonet] Blocking endogenous peroxidase in pig LN

[Gayle Callis]

I have a peroxidase and pseudoperoxidase block that uses Glucose oxidase 
for complete removal of these endogenous problems!!!  It was originally 
used for an eosinophil study so I will attach to you privately.   We refer 
to it as GLUOX Block.  The method comes with references, you may want to 
access and read.

It works for minimally fixed frozen sections (acetone fixed) and also on 
FFPE tissues, and will not chew the frozen sections off the slide.
