Summary & Explanation
{"type":"root","children":[{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"The Cancer Human Tissue Microarray (CH-TMA) is an unstained ready-to-use microscope slide consisting of 23 - 2 mm cores of human formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues which are assembled in array fashion to allow multiplex molecular pathology analysis and validation of reagents, or to be used as tissue controls for Immunohistochemistry and/or in situ hybridization (CISH and FISH) applications."}]}]}
Materials and Presentation
Five slides of 23-Core Human Cancer TMA positive tissues, each mounted on Hydrophilic Plus Slides, provided in a plastic mailer.
Principle of Procedure
Control slides are Hydrophilic Plus Slides with formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue or cell sections mounted on them, serving as a tool to qualitatively verify the performance of immunohistochemical staining procedures.
Each control slide contains tissue with known expression of the antigen targeted by the specific antibody. Positive staining on the control slide confirms the antibody’s functionality and the proper execution of the staining protocol.
