Hello All, We have new microwave tissue processor, until this purchase all tissue has been placed on a standard VIP processor. My medical director would like for most of our 125 antibodies worked up on microwave processed tissue. I have been challenged with getting specimens to process on the instrument for IHC antibody validation purposes. Initially we will be processing GI biopsy specimens, but we will eventually progress to other biopsy tissues and so on. I have had success getting some colon cancer cases, some tonsil and other tissue. We will be mainly performing H. pylori, which is hard to get a large enough specimen to obtain a sample for this purpose. Anyway I was wondering how other labs are handling validation in this situation. Thank you for your time in this matter.
