RE: [Histonet] new er pr cap guidelines
Dr. Hammond presented the new guidelines for ER (it is just ER not PR as I recall) at the AIMM meeting in Florida at the end of January this year and the fixation times for Breast have been extended to 72 hours, it is supposed to be changed to 72 hours for Her2 as well but I do not know if that has happened yet or not.

This was my first post about this issue: (I got no responses for) Yes, the paper is there, however, I see they addressed the fixation time in NBF for er/pr but I do not see where they talk about the time changing for her2. So does this mean that I have to fix some of the tumor for her2 for only 48 hours, while the er/pr can be fixed 72 hours? I am not sure why CAP would not address this up front.

RE: [Histonet] new er pr cap guidelines
I am not sure what the problem is here. You have to fix for up to 72 hours no more you can do less time. If you are already fixing your her2 for 48 hours, then what needs to change? You are not going to submit different cassettes for Er/Pr to fix for longer? You will submit them all and fix them all for 48 hours max. The guideline is to prevent under AND over fixation. Not to submit two different samples to fix for different times.

RE: [Histonet] new er pr cap guidelines
In those situations you can set up your processors to hold in formalin until the time limit is reached and then switch to 70% Sample comes in on Friday. Place it in formalin (on the processor) until the 48 hours have been reached most likely Sunday afternoon, then switch to an extended 70% alcohol, then continue to process so your cassettes will come off on Monday morning. It might mean that you have a 6-8 hour 70% step, but it should be ok. OF COURSE, run some test tissues first to make sure.

RE: [Histonet] new er pr cap guidelines
Yes, the paper is there, however, I see they addressed the fixation time in NBF for er/pr but I do not see where they talk about the time changing for her2. So does this mean that I have to fix some of the tumor for her2 for only 48 hours, while the er/pr can be fixed 72 hours? -Original Message- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Richard Cartun Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 10:07 AM To: anita dudley; histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: Re: [Histonet] new er pr cap guidelines I believe they are posted on the CAP website.
