[Histonet] Frozen Tissue Protocol

[Sheila Fonner]

Paula,

 

Where would I insert this step in my protocol if I am staining on the
Ventana Ultra?  Can I do it by hand after the slides are finished?  Thanks
for your help.

 

Sheila

You are seeing endogenous phosphatase, not endogenous peroxidase. Use 10%
acetic acid for 1-2 minutes.

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I asked for help with modifying my protocols to stain HSVI, HSVII,
and Zoster.  I appreciate everyone's help.  Now I am back for more info.  I
deleted the depar. and cell conditioning steps and I got specific staining
with little background.  There was just one problem.the pathologist says
that the leukocytes are reacting with the alk. phos on all of the slides.
Does anyone know if a blocking step would help in this case?  Just a
reminder - I am using the Ventana Ultra platform with Ultraview Red
Detection.  Thanks again Histoland.  You never let me down! J

Sheila
