> Good Afternoon Histonetters!
>
> Hotel reservations should be made quickly to ensure rate and availability. After today you will have to hope that room prices will not go up. I am working on trying to squeeze out a few more days for the hotel registration link below. Try this link below first and if it does not work make sure that when you call (1-866-397-6516) the hotel to make reservations that you mention Florida Society for Histotechnology. Act now to save money and possible aggravation. Looking forward to seeing you at our meeting!

> Anna,
> Don't know if you are talking human or non-human control?or if makes a difference and I don't want to get into that whole discussion again. But if a mouse control is OK, one of the cleanest and nicest systems I used? for B-gal was to get a transgenic mouse, easily obtainable with a Tie-2/lacZ promoter/reporter.? B-gal expressed only on vascular endothelium so your assay can easily be tweaked for strength and cleanliness of signal.? Have all the frozen/FFPE blocks you could ever need.

>> From my understanding its just one charge. Its per specimen such as A, B, C, etc. Someone else said that it would be 2 charges so am I wrong on this?? If you did GMS on A1 and AFB on A2 then that would be 2 charges because its two different stains.
