Debra-
BK, Polyoma virus, can be demonstrated beautifully with Electron
Microscopy.
That is, if you have access to an EM lab.
I am frequently processing renal core biopsies to r/o BK.
If you would like assistance-
let me know.

Is anyone out there using an antibody against polyoma virus, SV40; BK; or
JC, against human tissue for demonstrating kidney rejection?  If so, could
you share the details, thanks.
