Pretty sure you have to run your positive with your negative to keep the conditions 100% the same. You don't have to put them on the same slide necessarily, but they need to be on the same run. Also, say you are running 15 HP patient slides, you can have one negative control for all of these as long as it is on the same run.

Are you running your negatives with your patient/test cases or on a separate run? Also, if you are doing this and have to use a different detection kit how do you work the QA/QC portion of this for CAP requirements.
