Why do you need a negative control for each block if you are runn= ing the same antibody on each patient block? Is it just for case by c ase reference so the negative is filed with the patient slide? Why co= uldn't you have a control slide bank that was dated so all the slides you d= id on that day, on that run, could be referenced back to that control? = ; Just curious?

On autopsy cases, we only run 1 negative per tissue type, within the same run...this is the only exception to the rule of 1 negative per block. Linda A.

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.
