Control materials

The right components for precise results


Our control materials are suitable for immunohistology, in situ hybridization and special staining. In addition to entire control blocks, in which cell and tissue punches are homogeneously melted with the surrounding paraffin using a patented method, we also offer individual slide sets. The size of the sections is selected to enable patient and control materials to be put on one slide. This enables equal handling of multiple specimens, which, moreover, contributes to saving time and costs. Additionally, we offer the preparation of tissue arrays from your own laboratory tissues for control and research purposes.


Control blocks and control slides

Cell Control Arrays are FFPE blocks with embedded cells or cell lines that can be used as controls for various purposes. They are suitable for immunohistology, in situ hybridization and special stainings. Control slide sets contain precut sections of these blocks that are mounted on coated slides and already baked.

Advantages:

  • control blocks can be cut according to standard procedures and mounted on coated slides

  • suitable as on-slide controls next to test samples

  • the cell punches are homogeneously fused with the surrounding paraffin

  • good visibility of the sections on the slide due to the use of dyed paraffin

  • easy orientation within the section due to inserted punches of myocardial tissue 

  • constant and high quality as well as reproducibility of results

If you are not only interested in the preparation of a multiblock, but also in the staining, evaluation and documentation for respective sections, please contact us.

Other configurations as well as further services are available upon request.


Custom made

We can also create multi-tissue arrays using cutomer´s own tissue blocks.
