[Histonet] Renal Question

Kim,
 
In response to your 1st question our Pathologist along with the surgeon
generally look under the scope together at the specimen, never a
histotech.
 
In response to the 2nd question, regardless of location we do not
utilize the histotech for help. PAs or Residents handle all frozens. Our
true off site cases are sent via image analysis over the internet, which
are read by the Pathologist.
 
Hope this helps.

First of all I hope all of you are enjoying your Holiday. And I expect

that many of you are not at work like me, but when you get a chance if
you 
could help me out by answering these two questions I would be very 
grateful. :-) 
 
1) In your lab when you receive renal biopsy's  fresh. Who finds the 
Glomeruli using a microscope? A pathologist or a Histologist? 
 
2) Also, if you have frozen sections off site, do you always send a 
Histologist to assist the Pathologist? 
 
Thanks for your help in advance
 
Many Blessing to each of you!

Dear Histonetters,

Hopefully you are enjoying a great Holidays with your friends and
family!

I have been asked to perform . I got positive and negative absolutely
identical with beautiful nuclear DAPI and very red RBC. What to do or
what to change in my protocol to avoid RBC and background? Here is my
protocol:
1.Deparaffinization  (xyline- 60min, 100%Eth- 15min, 95%- 5min, 70%-
5min, H2O)
2. Antigen Retrieval ph6 in Citrate buffer (same I use for IHC)
3. Wash H2O and TBST
4. Protein block-
10minhttps://webmail.childrensmemorial.org/owa/?ae=PreFormAction&t=IPM.Note&a=Reply&id=RgAAAADBaOhrx0l9S5XoN3P8OXzpBwDbYZXQd%2bZ%2fQIud7XQY1kjHAAAKzOB%2bAADBupMEDGuaSo2Eh4%2bT%2fsNqAAOO6ORIAAAJ#
5. Ab, Rb anti-human - 60-90 min (same I use for IHC)
6. Wash TBST -5-10min
7. secondary Donkey anti-Rb 594 red - 60min
8. Wash TBST -5-10min, H2O -5min
9. DAPI - 10min
10. Wash H2O -5-10min
11. Gelvatol coverslip

Am I using wrong secondary? Is there any specific secondary or protocol
for IF staining for FFPE  to avoid background? I just used same AR and
primary Ab's dilution like i use for IHC with nice results.

Any suggestions are appreciated, especially in these Holidays days from
working histo- people:)

Thanks and have a warm and nice Holidays,
Naira

Dear Kim:
Although histology is practices very similarly all around the world,
each histolab operates with its own rules because there are no general
rules.
1- who finds the glomerulii? Usually is a pathologist, but some have
trained a histology technologist that takes care of the DIF or to
prepare the samples for TEM and the pathologist task is delegated to
that histotech. So, it depends on the pathology director to define how
the work is done.
2- off site frozen sections?ásometimes a histotech is sent to help the
pathologist, but usually the pathologist takes care of the whole thing.
So, again, it depends on the site although the custom is:
1- glomerulio are identified by the PT, and
2- PT take care of off site frozens.
Hope this will help you 
Happy Holidays
RenΘ J.
