Hi Everyone,
One of our pathologist has some IHC results that is a bit confusing...
Patient had previous Squamous cell Ca of the lung... had long courses of
radiation and Chemo...eventually died...
At autopsy, the tumor looks much more primitive and bizarre than
before... radiation effect, et
I have only done conjugation of biotin, HRP, and Alk-Phos.
But I have discovered a new kit that makes the labeling process a snap. It is
the "Lynx" kit from Serotec. They also have fluorophore labeling kits. It is
fast, easy and very efficient.

Hello fellow Histonetters!
I was wondering if any of you have ever labeled an antibody with fluorescence.
If so which kit and protocol did you use? Or did you send the antibody out to
be labeled? I'm hoping that you guys can help me out yet once again! Thank
you all so much in advance. I r
Lynette Pavelich sent me a procedure. My pathologist doesn't want to do
it, he thinks that somewhere in this country there is someone who does
it. Lynette is checking to see if they can.
Thanks to everyone!

When I was in Honolulu, loaded with shipyards - we frequently digested
lung tissue in sodium hypochlorite (bleach) to get an aggregate of
asbestos fibers (if they were present). I don't recall the exact
procedure, but it was quite common then. We were requested to do this by
lawyers, mostly.

Off the top of my head , could you not digest tissue in a tube with
proteinases, spin down and then examine any sediment?

One of my pathologists suggested I call Mayo. Nothing there. He said

Why do you want to dissolve these?
I seem to remember that these are usually characteristic shaped structures that
are iron positive and should be easy to identify on morphology alone or am I
mistaken?

Someone has asked me about MOM kists and since I don't do mouse work I thought
I would ask the experts. What is the best MOM kit available for use with

Perhaps check out Electron Microscopy Sciences - autopsy capsule...a 2

0.5" deep. I have used them for processing monkey and canine brains.

If its happening to an entire batch but not to other batches then you
can sorta rule out fixation unless you use different batches of fixative
for different batches of samples; logical yes? To put it another way if
you use the same fixative and fixation time on all batches but only one
