About this item
Blastomyces sp., animal control slides contain sections of positive staining animal lymph node and negative staining human lung.
- Tissue Type: (+) Animal Lymph Node / (-) Lung
- All control tissue is sectioned on Superfrost® Plus slides
- Staining validation technical memo included in each set
- All tissues are formalin fixed, paraffin embedded FFPE
- All slides are air dried
- Histo slides are cut at 4 µm, unless otherwise specified
- Standard tissue placement is mid-high on slide
Newcomer supply Blastomyces sp., animal control slides are for the positive histochemical staining of fungal organisms.
Staining Results:
Blastomyces sp. will stain crisp black cell walls & visible internal structures.
Mucin will stain taupe to dark gray.
Background will stain green.
Lung will stain negative for fungal organisms.
These positive control slides are intended to be used to verify histological techniques and reagent reactivity. These slides are to be used for the qualitative purpose of determining positive or negative results, and are not intended to be used for any quantitative purpose.
The morphology of the organisms is consistent with Blastomyces sp.
10 set = 10 unstained slides and 1 stained slide.
98 set = 98 unstained slides and 2 stained slides. (First & Last Slides are Stained)
Reactivity of Histo control slides are guaranteed for one year from the date of receipt and should be revalidated after one year to verify continued reactivity.
Please note the following: In human tissue unless otherwise indicated. Histopathology control slides are not quality controlled for IHC methods, as such, we cannot guarantee antigenicity.
