I am thinking there has to be a way to integrate the Validation into the
Optimization the vendor does. I think you should be able to make microarray
blocks/slides of at least 10 positive and more for ERPR per CAP during the
optimization. Now, the vendor will say they only do Optimization, but there
this is a way to get them to do the stains for you at least. You can create
your own document for the Validation.
When your manager negotiates the cost of the analyzer, see if the vendor can
help out with the initial expense with an allowance. It sounds like you might
be past this point.
Has anyone else done it this way?

Subject: [Histonet] Validating new Benchmark instrument
Hi everyone,
I know that this subject has come up several times and I am sorry to bother
everyone again but I was hoping to find some help. We are upgrading our
Benchmark Immuno machines to the Benchmark XT immuno machine at the end of
October. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to approach the validation
process? Do we need to validate every antibody that we use as well as the
kits? I know that there is also a gray area surrounding how many slides need
to be run to consider the antibody validated, but what would be the suggested
amount of slides to validate a new machine as I know this will be very costly.
Does anybody have a log/checklist/spreadsheet that they would be willing to
share to help document this validation of the machine and each of the
antibodies?
Thank you in advance for your help
Fawn Bomar
