[Histonet] Texas Red

[Mary Ann Deathridge]

1)  Does anybody use a "Texas Red filter" for viewing IHC slides stained 
with  Sox10, red chromagen?  I have used several different co.'s red 
chromagen.  We get positive staining.  However, if we get as vibrant as my 
pathologist likes then there is a slight blush.  He returned from a meeting 
and said that "Texas Red" was being used.  I found it to be a filter for 
the scope.  The filters cost approx. $600-900.  Thoughts? 

  

2)  Anyone using ERG antibody for dermpath cases?  Vendor? 

  

Thanks in advance ! ! ! !
