[Histonet] CD10

[Theresa Rohr]

Hi, 

I am just starting to work up the CD 10 Antibody (CALLA) Clone 56C6 from Novocastra.

I am testing at a range of 1:50, 1:100, 1:200 and 1:300 using EDTA antigen retrieval in a steamer for 20 minutes with 20 minutes cooling and 60 minutes in primary antibody on the Dako Autostainer with the Envision+ protocol. 

Did any of you have any success with this antibody on renal cell carcinomas? My first efforts show only focal staining of the tumor in all the dilutions but 4+ internal control staining. My pathologists seem to expect more intense staining of the tumor cells. 

Any suggestions would be very well received. 

Thanks so much for listening.
