Subject: [Histonet] Re guinea pig IHC



Ms Ruegg, as usual , gives excellent advice: avoid HRP.
Use Alk phos?
Block end. alk phos by using levamisole.

However, Ms Shivers does not state the fixation status of her FS.
Is the Gpig tissue perfused-fixed then frozen or....frozen as unfixed...then 
fixed?
Also....why 0.3% H2O2?
Use 3%....kill the enzyme, not feed it?
NOT aq for FS
Make up in IMS ( 74OP)
No tissue disruption
However: you state that you get loadsa bubbles...so what? Is your section still 
attached to your slide?
Can you then carry out successful IF/IHC?
If yes....no problem.
Sure, there's the argument that using a coagulant ( alcohol) in block is a No No
I never had a problem....provided that  the Formalin fixation was sufficient 
for unfixed crosections ( 15 mins)
I do STILL severely dislike FS ( sure, I spent many years in Diagnostic 
Histopath doing Operative FS)
 Why not use Pwax sections, Ms Shivers?

Curious-illy

Haven't seen any cytology listservs except the one for members of the ASC.  
There are some cytology facebook pages where you could get questions answered. 
This Histonet listserv is very informative.

In my experience it is not that GP have a higher peroxidase level, it is frozen 
sections in general that cannot be blocked with h202, unless they are fixed for 
a long time in formalin.  What are others experiences with h202 blocking on 
frozen sections.  I always  used an IHC detection system that did not require 
h202 blocking for frozen sections.

Subject: [Histonet] guinea pig IHC

Has anyone ever performed IHC on frozen sections of guinea pig tissue?  I
am experiencing an enormous amount of bubbling when doing the peroxidase
blocking step, even though I'm only using a 0.3% concentration of H2O2.
And when I say 'enormous', I mean it's like continuous champagne bubbles
rising out of the tissue, even after 20 minutes in the H2O2 solution.

I can't find anything in the literature that mentions guinea pigs having a
higher peroxidase content in their tissues.

Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.
