[Histonet] Control tissue for PCP

[Rathborne, Toni]

Hi  Histonetters.

Some time ago, I read a procedure for growing your own Gram +/- controls using a piece of fresh liver. Has anyone tried something similar with lung tissue for PCP? The control slides are very expensive, so we're looking for an alternative.

Thanks for any ideas you may have.
Toni
