Biocare has an IVD predilute that is very good. (PM153AA) We use it on our Benchmark XT.

We have now been asked by our Transplant team to do this test routinely on all transplant kidney biopsies (which is another issue). Is anyone using an "IVD"-labeled antibody for C4d detection by IHC? Although we get excellent results with this antibody on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue, I would prefer to be using an "IVD"-labeled antibody (if one exists). Thanks. Richard Richard W.
