About this item
Gram, multi-tissue, artificial control slides contain sections of gram positive staining rat lung, gram negative staining rat lung and a section of human lung nonreactive to organisms.
- Tissue Type: (+) Gram Pos Rat Lung (+) Gram Neg Rat Lung / (-) 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 Gram, Multi-tissue, artificial control slides are for the positive histochemical staining of gram positive and gram negative bacteria in separate tissue sections.
Staining Results:
Gram negative bacteria will stain red.
Gram positive bacteria will stain blue/violet.
Nuclei will stain red.
Background tissue will stain yellow.
Nonreactive lung will stain negative for gram positive/negative bacteria.
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.
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.
