HistoCyte
Control Slides
Research Use Only (RUO)
HistoCyte Laboratories uses proprietary methods to process cell lines into tissue-like controls for laboratories challenged to find suitable IHC & ISH control tissue including low and intermediate expressing biomarkers.
The products are standardized, developed, and manufactured to provide consistent morphology and staining results throughout the FFPE block. They also have the advantage of being manufactured to a reproducible standard and with an inexhaustible supply.
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES:
-
- Ideal for IHC and ISH
- Can obtain 300 sections from a block
- Saves time and resources
- Provides staining confidence
Cell Line controls are available either as pre-cut slides or in cell microarray (CMA) blocks. Dynamic Range Analyte Controls provide a full range of expression. Standard Analyte Controls have positive and negative expression.
