[Histonet] Help with MDM2 Protein Immunostaining

[Dana Settembre]

Hello Young Kwun,

I use MDM2 from Dako cat.#  M7146
It is IVD.
My pathologist seems satisfied with this.
I use Dako's Target Retreival Solution in a steamer for 40 minutes.
I use it at 1:40.
Good Luck,

Dear Colleagues,

 

Does anyone in Histoland use MDM2 Protein staining for some soft
tissue
sarcomas successfully?

I tried Lab Vision's polyclonal antibody (1/100 dil) and Novocastra's
MDM2
(clone 1B10, 1/150 dil) with Decloaker HIER and BondMax Autostainer.

However, my pathologist is not happy with the staining results, mainly
because of some non-specific stains. 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
