Not really. Time in the oven and temp is usually not an issue as long as the tissue is well fixed/processed/infiltrated. René J. --- On Mon, 3/12/12, Courtney Pierce wrote: From: Courtney Pierce Subject: [Histonet] IHC Slides To: "histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu" Date: Monday

Having problems with IHC slides not looking the same between runs. Does it have to do with how long and at what temp they are in the oven for? Courtney Pierce IHC Specialist Quintiles Translational R&D - Oncology Innovation Navigating the new health 610 Oakmont Lane Westmont, IL 60559 Office: +

Hi Cynthia, I agree with Greg, you have to re-do your staining from beginning (from AR step) after removing the hematoxilin. Naira ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet

I should add that the DAB step may also have "quenched" all of the linked peroxidases even before the hematoxilin was added (which would finish off any that remained). Greg Greg Dobbin, R.T. Chief Technologist, Anatomic Pathology Dept. of Laboratory Medicine, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, P.O. Box

Cynthia, Hematoxylin will inactivate the peroxidase (link) in the tissues. You must go back and re-do the link step and hopefully the antigenic sites will still accept more streptavidin (or similar) conjugated antibody. Cheer. Greg Greg Dobbin, R.T. Chief Technologist, Anatomic Pathology Dept.

Tony's answer (62 degrees C for 25 mins) is the minimum to ensure section adheres to slide. We all have to stain slides that have been baked longer than 30 mins. However, especially for Her2, longer baking times can result in false negatives or at least diminished staining. The justification
