Newcomer supply Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) Glycogen control slides are for the positive histochemical staining of glycogen in tissue sections, and can also be utilized as control slides for glycogen digestion steps.
Staining Results:
Glycogen digestion will stain absence of magenta.
Glycogen will stain magenta.
Acid & neutral epithelial mucin will stain magenta.
Nuclei will stain blue.
These positive control slides are intended to be used to verify histological techniques and reagent reactivity. These slides are to be used for the qualitative purpose of determining positive or negative results, and are not intended to be used for any quantitative purpose.
Ordering information: All controls are cut in serial sections.
10 set = 10 unstained slides and 1 stained slide.
98 set = 98 unstained slides and 2 stained slides. (First & Last Slides are Stained)
Reactivity of Histo control slides are guaranteed for one year from the date of receipt and should be revalidated after one year to verify continued reactivity.
