We have not done negative controls, but, have recently started placing both a negative and positive control on slides for Congo Red based on recommendation by Mayo. We are using a keloid scar. They state that on consult cases, they have often noticed overstaining on high collagen cases. Our pathologists thought it would be good for comparison! But, that is the only one for now!!
