RE: [Histonet] PFA preparation
I stopped making up paraformaldehyde from the powder; too toxic. Another colleague told me she buys it in a 16% solution, EM grade from EMS (10 x 10ml vials). I started using that, along with the glutaraldehyde to prepare my working solution.

RE: [Histonet] PFA preparation
I concur with the others. For about 6 years I've made it from powder but the toxicity risk bothered me until I realized how safely and cheaply you can just buy the same stuff. We get a discount through our stockroom on a 4L bottle of 10% Buffered Formalin from Fisher (SF100-4) for $28. I started getting neutral buffered formalin instead from Fisher. --On Monday, March 21, 2011 11:25 AM -0500 Montina Van Meter montina.vanme...@pbrc.edu wrote: Nick, I too have tried to limit my exposure after making it from scratch for 30+ years.

RE: [Histonet] RE: comprehensive list?
I find the histonet and the IHCRG list servers the best sources for what has been tried and what the results are. If you do not already participate in the IHC Resource Group (this has just an IHC focus and is not nearly as busy with all histology as Histonet is, we do not even get messages posted everyday, but I find those on the IHCRG list server to be great experts in IHC) to join the IHC Resource Group list server go to www.ihcrg.org and register as a member (NSH membership is required but if you are not a member of NSH they will show you how to become one). I usually do not try a new ab without asking the IHCRG list server members what their experiences may have been with that antibody.

I've also found that occasionally the antigen retrieval method quoted on a vendor's data sheet doesn't unmask antigens as well as another method tried in my initial antibody validation trials with that antibody. So, my point is... any comprehensive list should be used only as a guideline; results in your lab will be affected by the reagents, equipment, and environmental conditions you employ in your own lab.

Yet, it would be a great money and timesaver if there was one site to go to, to see if anyone had tried these antibodies by different methods and could also submit their own results for entry, possibly with links to Journal articles, much like what some vendors do. It could be a quick reference guide to setting up some research or double staining methods, or just see if some new request is going to fit your routine. Someone would have to have more time and computer skills than I.

Tom, Vendor datasheets are the best source of information. The vast majority of clinical vendors antibodies are designed for formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue. Research vendors are all over the map and often only test by western blots or elisa so they may or may not have information about how their antibodies work in fixed tissue.
