[Histonet] H&E for H. pylori?

[Rene J Buesa]

Paula:"Optimizing" H&E to detect H. piloris is a rout you should not attempt because H&E cannot be "optimized" for that.Giemsa is one way or, even better, modified Steiner stain. The only disadvantage modified Steiner has is using radioactive uranium nitrate, but I developed a procedure where 0.02% aq. phosphotungstic acid solution can be used instead. IHC will be way more expensive.

 Good Morning Listers,

Has anyone out there optimized an H&E for H. pylori?

Sure we can run a giemsa or and IHC but what fun is that?

Send me your ideas and make the day of our GI pathologists.

Thanks oodles.
