Hi Sandy, We cut CD31, CD45, CD45RA, CD117, CD204, and MUM1 controls fresh (same morning as staining; case material as well). We've never had any problems with Synaptophysin; it's always worked very well on unstained controls that are up to a year old (stored in the fridge). Best regards, Jan

Hello all, Do any of you have to cut any of you antibody controls "fresh"? We currently cut the MUM-1 fresh, and the Synaptophysin. (We seldom do a Syanpt., and have found the fresh cut patient tissue has been positive while the not-so-fresh positive control slide is negative.
