The "Evidence" should come from your own laboratory. Just because we don't run "Negative reagent controls" in my laboratory doesn't mean it's appropriate for you to discontinue their use for your laboratory. Your laboratory Medical Director needs to make this decision based on what he/she sees

I was also taught to run a positive and negative every time you do an immuno stain, provided there is sufficient tissue. I was trained at AFIP, by the people that wrote the second AFIP staining manual (the red one). Of course, if cost is your number one concern.
