Dear Histonetters,
We do IHC on pap stained cyto smears. The results do not always behave
accordingly on the smears that have been exposed to Carnoys. Does anybody know
whether Carnoys Fluid affects IHC on cytology smears? I have seen papers that
suggest improved IHC after Carnoys but maybe
I would recommend methanol or ethanol for fixation, smears itself can be
culprit of inconsistent staining
