LAB12376
LAB12379
  
RCC
  
  • All IHC stains will include a positive control tissue
  
  • Useful in identifying cells of renal epithelial origin
  • RCC is detectable in 93% of primary and 84% of metastatic renal cell carcinomas
  • RCC also may react with breast lobular and ductal epithelium, epididymal tubular epithelium and colloid of thyroid follicles

Specimen

  
Tissue
  

Submit formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue block

  

Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue block

  

FFPE tissue section mounted on a charged, unstained slide

  

Ambient (preferred)
