One of our histotech's ran a cyto keratin on our Ventana today. Our problem
is that the keratin stained nicely positive and the smooth muscle stained
positive also. We have never had this happen before. One of the pathologist
is concerned about carryover. In the same run was a muscle specific actin.
He is worried that some of the muscle specific actin was rinsed on to the
case being stained for keratin. Any help would be appreciated. I really
don't have specifics because I am not at work and I didn't do the run.
