GI (small intestine) biopsies are other possibilities associated to skin as control. When you mention Grams, are you referring to Bact's positive and negative.? If this is the case you can make them with blood Agar (microbiology) and contaminate the tissue with them. Or use Large intestine ther will be many you jus need to look for them. --- On Fri, 2/13/09, Steven Coakley <sjchta...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Steven Coakley <sjchta...@yahoo.com> Subject: [Histonet] need controls To: Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Date: Friday, February 13, 2009, 1:51 PM
I work in a DermPath lab. Currently we purchase all our controls. Some are Ok but some, especially the grams are not. We'd like to start sectioning. Our own but all the specimens we get are skins. _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
