RE: Complete Endog peroxidase blocking Re: [Histonet] Endogenousperoxidase blocking

From:pruegg@ihctech.net

I had a particularly difficult time quenching endogenous peroxidase in
sputum cytopreps full of granulocytes and it was suggested that I try the
new DAKO Dual Block for HRP and Alk.Phos. and it worked a charm, don't know
what's in it (proprietary you know), but perhaps it is similar to Gayles
reagents for glucose oxidase blocking.

Endogenousperoxidase blocking

Pablo,

I will be sending via private email - a method that may help.  It is the 
glucose oxidase blocking method, and used nicely for frozen sections but 
also paraffin sections.
