[Histonet] p16 dilution
Hi Histonetters, Does any of you use p16 Cintec from Roche/Ventana? We wanted to dilute this antibody but wasn't sure how much to dilute it to. Figured we could save a lot by doing so. We have been staining our p16 with no current dilution. Any suggestions will help. If there are any other vendors that offer p16 other than Roche, that would be useful to know. Thanks!

Re: [Histonet] CAP control revision
For all stains, we report the control verification on the patient report when reporting the stain results, and we run negative tissue controls for our organism stains, AFB and GMS Terri L.

How are other labs complying with respect to Special staining? Do you keep records of individual case control verification or just individual block verification?

[Histonet] Tanner cryostat
Here is a message I am posting for Bethany. Does anyone know anything about these cryostats imported from Germany? It's the Tanner TN50 cryostat. I'd like to hear from someone who has worked on one. We are looking to purchase a new cryostat. I love the QS12 but the Tanner is priced more reasonable. I can't find any reviews on this cryostat. Thanks!

[Histonet] IHC System from StatLab
I’m pleased to report that I was finally contacted by a representative from StatLab that provided me with the information I was seeking. I realize that their system may not be fully released, but I didn’t think it would be that difficult for them to provide information. Turns out that this instrument is very similar to another manufacturer’s instrument that’s been on the market for a while.J Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
