It is true that gout crystals are water-soluble, and we are all taught
that... but a few years ago there was a published article (JOH??) that
showed that many crystals DO survive after water-based fixation. Since
you already have the specimen in formalin, at least try processing and
see if they can be demonstrated. Couldn't hurt, not nearly as much as
the patient would for a re-biopsy!

Hello,

I'm doing RNA work for the first time. My plan is to take a fresh rat
brain,
block quickly, freeze by immersing in dry-ice cooled isopentane, storing
at
-80, collecting tissue sections (thickness will be determined, somewhere
between 20 and 300 um), and punching the particular regions I need out
of
the sections. I will then isolate RNA from the punches for qPCR
analysis.

Questions:

1) does this sound like a viable plan?
2) and suggestions, what to be careful of?
3) where do I have to be careful of Rnase, should I use disposable
blades,
cleaned with Rnase away?
4) where can I find Rnase free slides, or should I just make my own. I
usually use charged slides.

Any and all suggestions will be appreciated. I'm new to this and don't
know
where I will have problems.

Thanks!

Caroline

Thank you everyone for replying, much appreciated.

Having also talked to people in my dept, I have a rudimentary protocol
ready. Of course, I will have to tweak it to see what works. I will be
using
anti PGP9.5 antibody for neuronal immunology.

I am still not sure how to section the wing. In most likelihood, I will
be
using freezing sliding microtome. The "swiss roll" method sound good and
I
will definitely try it. I am thinking that since the wing membrane is
thin
(~30 um), I will also try to use the whole mount of small pieces.

Any other thoughts and advice would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Mohit Chadha,
Univ of Maryland.

Absolutely... Southeast Pathology Instrument Service out of Charleston,
SC.
The owner's name is Michael Dietrich.  I've done business with him
before
and they are great people, very honest and they stand behind their
instruments.  I would highly recommend them to anyone.  Contact Michael
directly and tell him Drew Meyer from Atlanta referred you.

Honestly, I think RNases are a bunch of hooha.  If you're being
careful anyway because you're doing a PCR, that should be enough.
Wear gloves, be sterile.
When I worked with a Russian post-doc, she said she did RNA in situ
hybridization without gloves and it worked.  Of course, god only knows
what her protocol was, as she had some crazy stories about Russian
labs.

Hi,
     We did this on derm punch biopsies for a while. We used PLP
(paraformaldehyde-lysine periodate) fixative. This was also done on a
sliding microtome at 50um with piles of dry ice to keep the sucrose
frozen.
It was a bit of a pain in the butt, but we got decent results. I think
the
sectioning process could have been easier, but the PI was obsessed with
not
modifying the project at all, even if it meant improvements.
     We stained these as floating sections in 96 well plates, so in this
case I would be concerned that the wing rolls would un-roll if you were
to
do the swiss roll thing I described.

Have fun :-)
Amos

Hi All,

 Has anyone ever used a Biotin block in their primary anitbody diluent?
I have been having problems with nonspecific staining, which I suspect
is due to endogenous biotin.  I plan on decreasing my antigen retrieval
time, as someone has told me that an antigen retrieval that is too
vigorous may cause the unmasking of biotin, and its subsequent staining.
I would like to know if anyone has had any luck using a biotin block in
their diluent because I may try that as well.

Thanks,

Jennifer Campbell

Hello Jennifer

I use the Avidin/Biotin blocking kit from Vector SP-2001  I mix the
Avidin D with my normal blocking serum and the biotin I add to my
primary antibody diluent. This seems to work well for most tissue types.

Cheers

Jim

Jennifer,
Vector has an avidin-biotin blocking kit that works well by itself or
mixed with reagents- very reasonable cost.

Hi Diane,
                    Because of your location I would recommend
Micro-optics of Florida. Mike Jones or Tom Christy. The number is
954-791-0082. They are great people to work with and I have found them
very reasonable on their prices.

Hope this helps!

Absolutely... Southeast Pathology Instrument Service out of Charleston,

The owner's name is Michael Dietrich.  I've done business with him
before
and they are great people, very honest and they stand behind their
instruments.  I would highly recommend them to anyone.  Contact Michael
directly and tell him Drew Meyer from Atlanta referred you.

Easy option is to melt down, and run cassettes through the clean cycle
on
your processors to remove all the paraffin.  then process as usual.
I've
done this before with decent results.

Good luck!

Hi Sarah, I don't melt them down I just drop them in with my dirty molds
and lids and run them through the cleaning cycle on my processor. The
Xylene and Alcohol will melt the oily fat. When the clean cycle is
complete I just drop them back into formalin until I process that
evening. It works very well.
