RE: [Histonet] Ki-67 (MIB1) Immunohistochemistry and neutrophil labeling

It's unlikely to be endogenous peroxidase.  I compared 3% hydrogen 
peroxide(aq) - 10min with 3% hydrogen peroxide in methanol - 30min with 
the same results; negative isotype control, positive neutrophils in the 
DAB test section.  Note: Dako Biotin Blocking system was also used in the 
protocol.

We recently had a Cyno monkey study which required evaluation of cell 
proliferation in formalin fixed, paraffin embedded liver sections.  During 

the review of the slides we noticed that neutrophils were also positive in 

addition to proliferating hepatocytes using DAB as the chromagen.  When I 
switched to Vector VIP the neutrophils were negative.  Has anyone else 
observed neutrophil labeling with Ki-67 using  DAB?  Could the DAB be 
reacting with the neutrophils?
