[Histonet] RE: negative controls on immunos

[McMahon, Loralee A]

We do not run additional negatives with each run on the same block.  If it was a different block then yes we would run a negative.  
It takes up too many spaces on the machine and uses reagents.

Subject: [Histonet] negative controls on immunos

If you do a run of several immunos today and you run a negative control,
and there is a request for additional immunos tomorrow, would you run
another negative control with the additional slides.  They are being
stained on a stainer and not manually,
