Tissue Array Blocks

From:Donna Harclerode

I am working on a large project at a new position to characterize their
polyclonal peptide antibodies for use in IHC applications. Currently their
products are marketed primarily for Western blot and immunoprecipitation. We
would like to add IHC for formalin fixed paraffin sections where applicable.

Ideally I would like to obtain tissue array blocks.  I am looking for both
normal and cancerous tissues (not necessarily in the same block).  I have
located sources for slides but prefer to section my own blocks but have no
access to human tissues. I could also re embed multiple tissues into one
block to make my own multi tissue blocks if paraffin processed tissue was
available.
I am starting the process with the CHTN, (Cooperative Human Tissue Network),
but will of course take a while for their approval.

Thank you for any ideas
