I'm don't know of a CAP regulation but it isn't a good idea to store
antibodies or tissue for that matter in a frost free freezer.   It can
dry out the antibodies or tissue if left for long periods of time.

Hi Histonet-

 

            Is anyone aware of new or existing CAP regulations regarding
the use of frost free refrigerator/freezers for the storage of
antibodies ie. IFA antibodies or IHC antibodies? Please advise if anyone
has information pertaining to Histology and the above mentioned use of a
refrigerator/freezer.  

 

Thank you,
