Re: [Histonet] Cut FFPE Slides for ISH

2017-08-29 Thread Michael Gudo via Histonet
Hello Jenniffer,

we store the slides with section at 4-8 °C for many month or even longer and we 
do not have any problems with ISH.

Best regards
Michael

[Histonet] Cut FFPE Slides for ISH

2017-08-28 Thread Dorothy Hu via Histonet
Hi Jennifer,

My ISH slides (FFPE) were stored in -20oC for several months or more than
one year and the targets were less abundant. I didn't use RNAscope though,
which is more sensitive. I don't know what kind of RNA your researcher try
to locate and need to do ISH within 24 hours after cutting?  Fresh cut
section will yield more signal for sure. I think as long as you have a few
copies of genes in your tissue, RNAscope should be able to detect.

[Histonet] Cut FFPE Slides for ISH

2017-08-28 Thread Jennifer Phinney via Histonet
Hello Histonet,
I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to find some references 
for how long FFPE slides intended for ISH can be kept before staining.  I have 
a researcher who swears their slides have to be stained within 24 hours of 
being cut, which does not sound correct to me.  I've used ACD's RNAscope before 
and their protocol lists the timeframe as 3 months (so this is a bit of a 
difference).

There's a lot of information about fixation times, but I've come up empty 
handed for cut slides.

Thanks everyone!
