Hi Sarah,
We document control results for all special stains, IHC, and routine H&E. In addition we also track all occurrences, i.e. milabelled slides, blocks, specimen accessioning issues, tissue pick-up on wrong slides, tissue floaters, dictation issues and any injuries. Also number of days within a defined period where work is not completed.
We also run and track and extensive QA program from the pathologist's perspective with parameters set as indicated by the consulting pathologist for the area.

We collect data from our preclinical (accessioning, registration) and document all registration errors, specimen errors, etc. We collect data from our IHC runs such as controls that do not work, wrong antibodies on tissue, wrong cases cut, tissue falling off the slide etc. We do the same for special stains and H & E's. We document all mislabeled blocks and slides. Annette Featherstone Kaleida Health

Hi Brett,
at my previous job we did IHC staining for phospho-Histone H3 (ser10) using the Cell Signaling rabbit monoclonal antibody CS9701 in FFPE tissue, and it worked beautifully. It was on human origin tissue, don't remember cross-reactivity in other species but Cell Signaling mentions it reacts with many others.
Good luck
Jean-Martin

I am looking for an antibody for labeling FFPE sections of mitotic cells that are only in M-phase. Found one article in J Histo Cyto using clone HTA28-phospho-Histone H3(Ser 28) that looked pretty good, but the Authors produced their own antibody.
The commercial suppliers I have been able to locate do not indicate IHC as a suitable application for their products.
Anyone had experience with this??
Or can you recommend another M-phase specific antibody?
Many thanks,
Brett

Hi histonetters,
Anyone out there successfully using a monoclonal HMB45 antibody on canine tissues? I think I've read a dozen papers all with different protocols and my eyes are about to pop out of my head! Currently I'm at a 1:50 dilution with a pretreatment in a citrate buffer (pressure cooker). I have my choice of a polymer based detection as well as a biotinylated detection. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I had little or no success with HMB45 on canine tissue. I use Melan-A exclusively; that works fine.

hello, will someone with expertise in fresh frozen whole mount and/or

standard size sections but now one of our PI's is considering trying
larger samples. Thanks, Atoska

The James Watson Company sells new & used vacuum pumps. Their phone number is
(770) 422-1154. I do not know if they have a web site. They are a direct source instead of having to buy from a medical supply company that will mark up your product.

Thanks to all who replied to my question. Seems like everyone uses anti-phosph-histone H3 (Ser10) as I have also used.
However, the Ser10 antibody has also been shown to label interphase G2 cells (Goto et al., J Biol Chem 1999, 274: 25543-25549 and others) and I was really looking for an M-phase only marker. So if anyone has used the phospho-Ser28 histone H3 antibody I would be interested to hear your experiences.

Deareast Histopeeps!
We're currently upgrading our clinical research facility into the world of IHC and ISH.
Can you provide us ANY BASIC/ FULL EQUIPMENTS/ PROTOCOLS needed for us to be functional in these procedures?
We're currently running the routine H&E and some special stains and we have the instruments needed for these.
We just want to be ready for our first IHC and ISH stuffs.
Thank you for your humble help and your big contribution!

Hi all,
Some time ago someone on this list asked if anyone had slide holders for the old Lerner Linerar stainer. Well, we just moved and a box turned up. Let me know if you need them and these brand new slide holders are yours. Â

We collect data from our preclinical (accessioning, registration) and document all registration errors, specimen errors, etc. We collect data from our IHC runs such as controls that do not work, wrong antibodies on tissue, wrong cases cut, tissue falling off the slide etc. We do the same for special stains and H & E's. We document all mislabeled blocks and slides. Annette Featherstone Kaleida Health

Hi Brett,
at my previous job we did IHC staining for phospho-Histone H3 (ser10) using the Cell Signaling rabbit monoclonal antibody CS9701 in FFPE tissue, and it worked beautifully. It was on human origin tissue, don't remember cross-reactivity in other species but Cell Signaling mentions it reacts with many others.
Good luck
Jean-Martin

I am looking for an antibody for labeling FFPE sections of mitotic cells that are only in M-phase. Found one article in J Histo Cyto using clone HTA28-phospho-Histone H3(Ser 28) that looked pretty good, but the Authors produced their own antibody.
The commercial suppliers I have been able to locate do not indicate IHC as a suitable application for their products.
Anyone had experience with this??
Or can you recommend another M-phase specific antibody?
Many thanks,
Brett

Hi histonetters,
Anyone out there successfully using a monoclonal HMB45 antibody on canine tissues? I think I've read a dozen papers all with different protocols and my eyes are about to pop out of my head! Currently I'm at a 1:50 dilution with a pretreatment in a citrate buffer (pressure cooker). I have my choice of a polymer based detection as well as a biotinylated detection. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I had little or no success with HMB45 on canine tissue. I use Melan-A exclusively; that works fine.

Thanks to all who replied to my question. Seems like everyone uses anti-phosph-histone H3 (Ser10) as I have also used.
However, the Ser10 antibody has also been shown to label interphase G2 cells (Goto et al., J Biol Chem 1999, 274: 25543-25549 and others) and I was really looking for an M-phase only marker. So if anyone has used the phospho-Ser28 histone H3 antibody I would be interested to hear your experiences.

I have some brand new lab tek metal slide cabinets that are missing the drawer dividers, does anyone know where I can buy these? They turn the drawer into two so you can line up slides or blocks side by side, without these nothing fits in the drawer.

Patsy,
RA Lamb has drawer dividers that would work if you do not have any luck finding those.
Thanks and have a great weekend.

I have some brand new lab tek metal slide cabinets that are missing the drawer dividers, does anyone know where I can buy these? They turn the drawer into two so you can line up slides or blocks side by side, without these nothing fits in the drawer.
Thank you,
Patsy

Hi all,
Some time ago someone on this list asked if anyone had slide holders for the old Lerner Linerar stainer. Well, we just moved and a box turned up. Let me know if you need them and these brand new slide holders are yours.

Dear Histonetters,
I am working as a histologist in one of the pharmaceutical companies in India. I have accepted an opportunity to set up a histology lab(mainly rodent tissues). I have an query. Â
In our archives, i have found some references about Richard Allan website staining manual which is having very useful information for trouble shooting. Â
But i didn't find any staining manual and also Richard Allan is now a part of thermo. Â
If any of our fellow histonetters have any idea about this staining manual or its contents. Â
thanks for all your help

Good morning,
You may want to check the archives as there have been a few postings on this subject recently.
Depending on your usage, you may want to consider slide LABEL printers rather than slide etchers. In our application, we need the label/slide to be generated just prior to the histotechnologist cutting the tissue. Because this requires a slide printer/labeler to be next to each microtome and because we need these slides/labels to print very quickly, we chose to go with a label printer rather than an etcher.
If you would like some details on the printer or would like to hear further details, please let me know.
