[Histonet] Cut FFPE Slides for ISH

[Michael Gudo]

Hello Jenniffer,

we store the slides with section at 4-8 °C for many month or even longer and we do not have any problems with ISH.

Best regards
Michael

I have a researcher who swears their slides have to be stained within 24 hours of being cut, which does not sound correct to me.  I've used ACD's RNAscope before and their protocol lists the timeframe as 3 months (so this is a bit of a difference).
