[Histonet] Negative Reagent Controls in Diagnostic IHC....

[Cartun, Richard]

My colleagues and I presented a poster at the NSH annual meeting in Providence recently titled, "Negative Reagent Controls in Diagnostic Immunohistochemistry:  Do we need them?".  I have received a few requests for the actual poster (PowerPoint slide).  I will be happy to e-mail it to anyone who is interested.



Oh, by the way, we have determined that they are not needed in our laboratory and by eliminating them we have saved our laboratory over $100,000 a year!
