[Histonet] OSCAR antibody
What do the letters that make up the name OSCAR mean ? There is a debate in my lab over it? :) Maria Katleba HT(ASCP), MS Pathology Dept. Mgr.

Re: [Histonet] OSCAR antibody
Patti Loykasek responded to that question a few weeks back: Actually the name stands for Our Second Cytokeratin Antibody Rocks! A bit of path humor (or at least Dr. Gown tried to be humorous!). We are truly a bit silly sometimes.

Re: [Histonet] OSCAR control
Dr. Allen Gown, from PhenoPath laboratories developed this antibody. Perhaps you might contact Patti Loykasek at PhenoPath at (206) 374-9000 and she might help you.

[Histonet] Oscar
Hi All. I understand that there was a recent question regarding the antibody Oscar (pan cytokeratin). I've been off histonet while I was on vacation. We routinely work up Oscar using normal liver. There should be staining of the bile ducts and the hepatocytes. I'd be happy to offer more info if the person who originally posted will contact me. I'll try not to take vacation again ( at least until the next available time!). Happy Monday.

Re: [Histonet] Oscar
Oscar? when I was the supervisor of the immuno lab at the AFIP, our rabbit that produced our anti-keratin died. The civilian researcher and I were working up multiple cytokeratin cocktails to replace Fluffy. We wanted to call it the BOZO antibody, but our medical director refused. I can see it now, in print 50 cases were stained with the Bozo antibody, now there's Oscar. Tell me this antibody didn't come from Hollywood.

RE: [Histonet] OSCAR Antibody
Hi Maria, We run OSCAR on Ventana Ultraview - CC1 Mild, 37 degrees C, 16 minute incubation. We get the antibody from Covance - product #SIG 3465-16. This comes as a 6ml predilute. Our docs like it quite a bit, and order it on a regular basis. Hope this helps.
