Subject: [Histonet] IHC Negative reagent controls
Message-ID:



Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

A question that came up regarding negative reagent controls for
IHC...currently using Ventana i-View.  Our regular negative control goes
through the standard antigen retrieval steps, like 99% of our antibodies.
However there are a small number of antibodies that require enzyme as well
(Protease 1).  I've seen a number of suggestions regarding this for the
negative reagent control...some say use an additional negative control
protocol that includes the protease, some say to use a single negative
control protocol and just include the harshest cell conditioning that any of
your protocols use (so basically use the cell conditioning + protease
negative control for all antibodies)...i-View is not polymer-based so we
need to continue using negative controls.  Any thoughts or advice?

Hi Cayman,

Unfortunately, applying HIER to a negative control for an antibody that
requires enzyme retrieval (or no retrieval at all) is not appropriate.
The pre-treatment processes are different and could unmask different
epitopes.
If you are using a negative control then the whole procedure needs to be
same with the exception or replacing the localisation antibody with an
Isotypic antibody solution. (Isotype controls are primary antibodies that
lack specificity to the target, but match the class and type of the primary
antibody used in the application.)

For example, applying citrate or EDTA HIER to sections prior to using the
CD99 antibody (clone 12E7) can reveal perinuclear (golgi-like) staining of
some tumours (eg some colonic carcinomas) but this is not seen if enzyme
retrieval is used.

Hope this is useful

Hello Sandra,

if you need very high quality pathology saws we recommend the machines from
EXAKT. We have three of them in our lab and use them for pathology
sectioning as well as for cutting grinding techniques. They work with a
diamond band and there are several kinds of diamond bands available.

The website of EXAKT you can find here:
http://exaktusa.com/pathology-equipment/

You can contact Linda Durbin (linda.dur...@exaktusa.com), I think she can
give you a local contact.

With best regards
Michael
