I have a question Lac Z staining and BetaGalactosidase IHC.  The Lac-Z stain is 
enzyme dependent, so it  must be fresh/frozen for the reaction to work.  Is 
this also true for the betagalactosidase IHC?  The target of the antibody is 
the enzyme, but I am not sure if the enzyme need to be "active" or just present 
for the antibody to bind to it.  If anyone has knowledge on the subject, please 
share!  We are working with mouse kidneys, and although our controls are 
positive, the kidneys that should be are not.
Thank you,
Liz
