A Compresstome VF-300-oz is now available in the Molecular Pathology Core for assisted or unassisted use. This vibrating microtome is capable of sectioning both fixed and live tissues with thicknesses ranging from 3 µm to 2 mm. Sterile conditions can be used for living slice studies suitable for electrophysiology…
Molecular Pathology Core now offers the construction of Paraffin Tissue Micro Array (TMA) blocks. TMA blocks are constructed out of the area of interest from the “donor” block and placed into the “recipient” block which becomes the TMA. A 36 core and a 72 core TMA option are available. Contact…
Dr. Cheng, Assistant Professor, is a cancer and nutritional epidemiologist who joined UF in 2016. His studies have two main elements: 1) studying the role of genetic susceptibility, environmental exposure, and their interactions; and 2) investigating molecular markers in cancer subtypes to elucidate cancer etiologies. Current efforts emphasize molecular pathological…
In this immunohistochemistry (IHC) single stain, Ki67+ nuclei are shown in brown chromogen (DAB) in a human tumor indicating a high proliferation rate. All nuclei are counterstained with hematoxylin. Ki67 IHC is also available for mouse and rat tissues and in combination with other primary antibodies. …
Our users often request special services for sectioning or staining. On this particular project, mouse aorta is shown by H&E stain. (Mouse aorta stained with hematoxylin and eosin) …
Quadruple or multiplex IHC is becoming more mainstream. Shown are islets from human, rat, and pig stained for somatostatin (SS, green), glucagon (red), insulin (blue) and pancreatic polypeptide (black). This staining was done using chromogen kits given to the MPC by Biocare Medical. Human: Rat: Pig: …
