Human Skin Cancers and Normal Skin
Description:
Human Skin Cancers and Normal Skin
Trade Name:
Chemicon (Millipore)
Qty/Pk:
1 kit
Product Overview:
Chemicon Select Tissue Arrays are intended for laboratory research use only. The individual tissues were fixed in neutral buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin. Tissue identification and diagnosis was performed by certified pathologists. Tissue cores were removed from their paraffin blocks and relocated into a new recipient paraffin block, in an array pattern, using Chemicon's Advanced Tissue Arrayer (ATA-100). The location of the tissues in the array can be found on the next page of this product insert.
* Representative staining pattern only. Not for Diagnostic Use; User results may vary.
SPECIFIC TISSUES:
Three Cancer Types (Melanoma, Squamous Cell, Basal Cell)
Nine Different Cases of each Cancer
Two 2.0mm Cores of each Case
Three Normal Tissue (Skin)
One Different Case of each Tissue
Two 2.0mm Cores of each Case
TISSUE HETEROGENITY:
Tissues by their nature have three-dimensional heterogeneity. The tissue cores used in constructing this tissue array may not be homogenous in their cellular constituents. Because of this, we insert multiple tissue cores from multiple cases. This strategy helps in obtaining representative samples from each case.

Human
Usage Statement:
Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals.
Brand Family:
Chemicon
Presentation:
Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded. Four micron thick sections were air dried onto positively charged 75 micron Capillary Gap microscope slides. After air drying, the sections were coated with paraffin to protect the tissues from oxidation. These slides may be stained manually, and on all automated IHC instruments.
Storage Conditions:
Store in a cool laboratory environment, in suitable microscope slide containers. Product is stable for 18 months under these storage conditions.
Packaging:
4 slides + 1 H&E
