The price of the TEST SLIDE is one-fourth of regular array slide. The quality of this test slide is same as the other array slides. This slide can be used for adjustment of experimental condition. The TEST SLIDE is also useful for most researchers who consider the experiment using tissue array slides.

General Information of the Tissue Array Slide

Applications

  • 􀁺 Immunohistochemistry
  • 􀁺 In situ hybridization, RNA or DNA
  • 􀁺 Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH)
  • 􀁺 In situ PCR, RNA or DNA
  • 􀁺 TUNEL for apoptosis (Recommended procedures in www.tissue-array.com -> protocol) Storage

and stability

  • 􀁺 Individual slide is paraffin-coated and put in an air-tight pack with inert gas.
  • 􀁺 Tissue array slides are shipped in room temperature.
  • 􀁺 If the slides are stored in 4 degree, they are good up to one year.

How processed

  • 􀁺 Tissues were initially fixed with formalin except for some of the animal tissues.
  • 􀁺 Then, dehydrated with gradient ethanol; typically 1 hour each progressive steps; 70%, 90%, 95%, 99%, 100% x 3 times.
  • 􀁺 Cleared by xylene, three changes for 1 hour each.
  • 􀁺 Infiltrated with 60°C paraffin, three changes for 1 hour each
  • 􀁺 Microtoming in 4 µm thickness and put on silane coating slide from Muto Pure Chemicals (Japan)

Before use

  • 􀁺 Dry slides for 1 hour in a oven at 60 degree.
  • 􀁺 Dewax slides in xylene for 4 minutes x 5 times
  • 􀁺 Hydrate slides in 100%, 95% and 75% ethanol for 3 minutes x 2 times each.
  • 􀁺 Immerse slides in tap water for 5 minutes

Slide orientation

  • 􀁺 Refer to data sheet for slide orientation.
