Not spit ,saliva and we leave it on for 15/20 minutes and then rinse well. I
have had techs who did not like doing it so we bought the enzyme and after all
the hassle she found it did not work as well...now we all think about chocolate
and salivate. :)

Read and digest the Dako book and you will sail through the exam. For a

Hi Michael,
I used NSH 5th series assessment book, double check on the NSH website. It's
the book with questions and answers for IHC, Enzyme histochemistry. I also used
IHC tutorial by Thermo Shandon online, that was recommended on the histonet
network.
I'm not sure of the website. Maybe

They hold the patent and no one else produces it. We order the kit and use the
antibody on the Ventana XT stainers, placing the antibody in a prep kit. Works
great.

Has anyone ever experienced OCT blocks that cut like they are soft. I have
turned the cyrostat down 10 degrees lower than usual and they are still soft.
Really weird part is that I have 20 blocks in this group and some are soft and
others are just fine. Tried changing angle, new blade nothing
I would be interested in that info too.

I have seen soft or rather sticky OCT samples in the past. If you
freeze in isopentane and don't let the isopentane evaporate off the
samples prior to wrapping the sample in foil, that excess isopentane
changes the OCT, it makes it sticky.

No; you can not bill the patient for this. You should charge the attorney for
the work you do.

I am hoping to get some guidance on this. Occasionally we get requests to
perform HER2 on specimens that have been decaled. The revised CAP question,
ANP.22998 specifically states in the notes that decalcification with strong
acids should not be used. How are other institutions handling

I agree with previous responders to this query, as I've gotten alcohol on
my blocks and since alcohol doesn't freeze real well it makes a sticky mess
with the OCT. The affected OCT can be scraped off with a razor blade.
Hopefully the tissue itself did not come in contact with alcohol prior to

Same with ETOH. We wipe our surfaces down with it to clean them so no cross
contamination as we freeze our skin here on the metal side areas of our
cryostats. If the alcohol hasn't been wiped dry or evaporated we have that
problem too.
