I am looking for anyone who might have experience with 4F1G (4%
Formaldehyde &1% Gluteraldehyde in 0.1M PBS, pH 7.4) and
immunohistochemistry staining. We are interested in fixing tissue in this
and then making both EM and paraffin blocks from the same sample. I was
interested in getting opinions on how different immuno markers, normally
run on FFPE tissue, might be affected by this fixation change. I realize
that it is probably marker dependent and that fixation is a huge factor in
immuno, but I was just interested in some opinions or any markers that you
might have tried this fixative with that will work.
Thanks in Advance!! :-)
