I'm inclined to agree with you Andrew. Seems to me that CAP has become,
unintentionally (I'd like to believe) something of an unsavory, bullying
sort of entity. I'm not certain about all the factors involved, but I
think a few things have definitely contributed to all of this CAP
negativity.

Correction...I meant to include "High school drop-out" in my
example. Furthermore, this is NOT a gender based
comment...just a real life example of some of the things I
have seen in "CAP" or "non-CAP" inspected laboratories.

Sheesh is right, J.
CAP is all politics as far as I am concerned. It is all
about protecting the careers and paychecks of the general
pathology community.
I am thouroughly unimpressed with JCAHO, CAP et al.
If all you need to legally run a laboratory is to be CLIA
inspected, then WHY BOTHER with
Dead cells stain intensely with anionic dyes such as eosin. For nervous tissue
there's a simple method using acid fuchsine and toluidine blue. Normal neurons
are blue; dead and dying ones are red.

Do you bake your slides? How old are your cut sections that you are testing?
We have found that long baking of the sections before staining? Like overnight
at 60C causes the staining intensity to decrease. And if the sections are
older than a month the staining intensity decreases as well.
Someone I believe on Histonet a couple years ago told me the same thing.
The "perfusion circuit" is compromised if you have fluid coming out the
nose and internal organs swelling up...

Hello Histonetters,
We desperately need an assay that detects cell death in human FFPE sections
(regardless if its apoptosis or necrosis).
Some kind of kit (quick 'n easy) would be really fine!
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
