[Histonet] endogenous peroxidases

[sgoebel <@t> mirnarx.com]

So I have been seeing from this post that people block prior to HIER?  I
have always done it as the first step after for 10 minutes (I use the
DAKO enzyme blocker).  Is this wrong?
Thanks

Make sure you use a fairly fresh bottle of H2O2. (no older than 6  
months).  The stock bottle degrades after it is opened.  I have seen  
people using an older bottle of  H2O2 and the results are sub-optimal.
