Re: [Histonet] p16 from Ventana

2017-04-05 Thread Lynch, Kenia via Histonet
Hi all,

Roche will still have the p16 antibody, but there are a few changes taking
place. Please reach out to your account manager for clarification.

Thanks,
KCL

Re: [Histonet] Processing cystic tissue

2017-04-05 Thread Bob Richmond via Histonet
Charles Riley HT, HTL(ASCP)CM, a Mohs histopathology coordinator, asks:

>>Can anyone give me an idea how they process cystic tissues? The normal tissue
processes extremely well on my current protocol but the cystic areas just
are too soft to cut. Any tricks anyone can provide to process better or cut
better after processing would be greatly appreciated.<<

Whoever's grossing should remove most of the keratinous contents of an
epidermal inclusion cyst (or the contents of a pilar cyst), leaving a small
amount around the edge so that you don't disrupt the lining much. That's
what I do for myself. There's nothing to see in the keratin, and it
interferes with getting a good section.

The same reasoning applies to other cystic material, such as ovarian cysts.

Subject: [Histonet] Sigma p16

Hello Histonet!  Anyone out there using (or getting ready to use) the 
p16(ink4a) antibody available from Sigma?  We currently use Ventana's but will 
probably buy from Sigma once the Ventana product is discontinued.  Would love 
to hear from anyone with experience with Sigma.

2017-04-05 Thread Zimmerman, Billie via Histonet
Histopalooza is fast approaching.  The Roche Navigator will be there. This 
mobile showcase will be featuring the Ventana portfolio of automated staining 
platforms, specimen tracking, and digital pathology solutions.  Hope all of you 
can make the trip to Lake Lanier.  Contact your Ventana rep to set up your time 
for touring the Navigator.  The Navigator is a big mack daddy bus, no pop-up 
camper.  Haha   Hopefully, next week I'll have a good link for you to see this.

See you soon,
Billie Zimmerman
