TdT enzyme from Ventana (Cell Marque)

From:Victoria Baker

Hi Everyone,

I have a "rush" study using TdT from Ventana.  I've
never used it before, so I'm looking to see if anyone
else has used it and how they liked it.  

I have to stain mouse lungs using the Ventana ES (our
Discovery system isn't up yet). I use an EDTA based
solution for heat retrieval with a microwave. 
According to the "spec" sheet it says to incubate for
32 minutes, has anyone found this to be too long an
incubation for mouse tissue?

Normally I do this by in-situ manually, but because as
usual PI's don't understand the meaning of advanced
planning I'm forced to resort to this method.

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
