coverslipping, labeling, technical quality control, and packaging.
may be batched.
PARAFFIN UNSTAINED ONLY - $4.00 per slide
Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
and packaging.
PARAFFIN ROUTINE SPECIAL STAIN - $11.00 per slide
Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
special staining, coverslipping, labeling, technical quality
control, and packaging. Special stains require separate handling
and individual reagents.
PARAFFIN SILVER STAIN - $16.00 per slide
Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
special staining, coverslipping, labeling, technical quality
control, and packaging. Silver stains require individual handling
and metallic silver reagents.
PARAFFIN HISTOCHEMICAL STAIN - $16.00 per slide
Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
special staining, coverslipping, labeling, technical quality
control, and packaging. Histochemical stains require individual
handling and enzyme based reagents.
FROZEN SECTION H&E - $11.00 per slide
Tissues receive prior flash freezing or freezing on site, manual
sectioning, hematoxylin & eosin staining, coverslipping,
labeling, technical quality control, and packaging.
FROZEN SECTION UNSTAINED ONLY - $9.00 per slide
Tissues receive prior flash freezing or freezing on site, manual
sectioning, and packaging.
FROZEN SECTION SPECIAL STAIN - $16.00 per slide
Tissues receive prior flash freezing or freezing on site, manual
sectioning, special staining, coverslipping, labeling, technical
quality control, and packaging. Special stains require separate
handling and individual reagents.
FROZEN SECTION HISTOCHEMICAL STAIN - $16.00 per slide.
Tissues receive prior flash freezing or freezing on site, manual
sectioning, cytochemical staining, coverslipping, labeling,
technical quality control, and packaging. Histochemical stains
require individual handling and enzyme based reagents.
TECHNICAL CONSULTATION OR TRAINING - $25.00 to $50.00
per hour
One-on-one consultation exploring potential histology techniques
as they relate to individual research project. (May or may not
result in work for the Histology Unit.) Assisting researchers
with initial handling of specimens prior to drop off at the
Histology Unit. (For example: demonstration of grossing, orienting,
fixing, or flash-freezing techniques that researcher will perform
in his/her own lab.) Assisting researchers with tissue preparation
procedures / techniques.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY ANTIBODY PROVIDED - $16.00 per
slide
Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
automated immunohistochemical staining, coverslipping, labeling,
technical quality control, and packaging. These tests are completed
with the individual primary antibody for the test being provided
by the researcher. These techniques may require multiple methods
of pre-treatment prior to immunostaining. May also be performed
on frozen tissue.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY NO ANTIBODY PROVIDED - $21.00
per slide
Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
automated immunohistochemical staining, coverslipping, labeling,
technical quality control, and packaging. These tests are completed
with the individual primary antibody for the test NOT being
provided by the researcher. These techniques may require multiple
methods of pre-treatment prior to immunostaining. May also be
performed on frozen tissue.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY TESTING CHARGE - $10.00 per
slide
This charge is utilized for samples undergoing research and
development of protocols. Many times cross-reactivity and effects
of fixation are unknown. Once a working protocol for the researcher
has been established they are upgraded to the normal fees for
service. Tissues receive automated processing, manual embedding,
sectioning, automated immunohistochemical staining, coverslipping,
labeling, technical quality control, and packaging. Individual
primary antibody for the test may or may not be provided by
the researcher. These techniques may require multiple methods
of pre-treatment prior to immunostaining. May also be performed
on frozen tissue.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY NEGATIVE CONTROL - $0.00 per
slide
This is given to researchers at no cost. The reagents required
are already being utilized within the staining protocol. Tissues
receive automated processing, manual embedding, sectioning,
automated immunohistochemical staining, coverslipping, labeling,
technical quality control, and packaging. Individual primary
antibody for the test may or may not be provided by the researcher.
These techniques may require multiple methods of pre-treatment
prior to immunostaining. May also be performed on frozen tissue.
