Histonetters,

I would like to set the record straight since I seemed to ruffle Hadi's feathers.  

Our institution does not perform FISH, but we do send them to Mayo Clinic in Rochester.  We do our own immunohistochemistry and so far the only antibody that we have not been able to work up on Prefer fixed tissues is the TTF1.  

We have great results using Prefer fixative and I believe in this product.  I believe that it does take an open mind, and a willingness on both staff and pathologists to work through the changes.
