[Histonet] Mini Lab Incubators?

2019-06-12 Thread Cooper, Brian via Histonet
Good Afternoon Histonetters!

Does anyone out there have any recommendations as far as Mini Lab Incubators 
go?  Have looked at the VWR Digital Mini Incubator and LabNet International 
Mini Incubator online this morning.  Haven't seen much in the way of comments 
on these products; would love to hear your feedback.

Thanks,

Re: [Histonet] FISH for breast core (Her2)

2019-06-12 Thread Mark Tarango via Histonet
 Hello Taganrog,

If you are having issues with high autoflorescence due to prolonged
formalin fixation (7 days), it might help to do a few minutes extra
protease digestion (5+ minutes) during tissue pretreatment.  Alternately or
in conjunction, I would suggest re-applying HER2 probe to the same slide
that had already been pretreated and hybridized.  By doing this a few times
(even up to four tries), you will likely get FISH signals that you can see
and enumerate.

Good luck,

Mark Tarango

Maxim, this is a link to the cIQc assessment page 
http://cpqa.ca/main/?page_id=24
If you look at the HER2 ISH assessments you will see numerous protocols used by 
laboratories. To my knowledge the protocols work on both biopsy and resection 
tissue.

 Morning,
I need a good advice in optimizing Mouse antibodies for research purposes. I 
use Dako/Agilent products. COX6B2 from Sigma is giving us hard times. Dako kit 
HRP has a mixture of mouse and rabbit so we think that might be the reason

Is there any tips for optimizing antibodies special for mouse tissue? Or if you 
can share your best procedures in IHC mouse stains. I can have a different ways

that I can learn more about IHC for research mainly done in  Xenograft.

Morning,
I need a good advice in optimizing Mouse antibodies for research purposes. I 
use Dako/Agilent products. COX6B2 from Sigma is giving us hard times. Dako kit 
HRP has a mixture of mouse and rabbit so we think that might be the reason

Is there any tips for optimizing antibodies special for mouse tissue? Or if you
