Product news

AMSBIO has announced a new HER2 control cell line array developed as an effective slide quality control for HER2 expression in breast cancer tissue samples.

This new FFPE cell pellet microarray delivers a full dynamic range of HER2, ER and PR expression, validated by the Ventana system, to give immunohistochemical data in strong concordance with the routinely processed tissue sample sections.

Using cell line controls significantly lower the costs of immunohistochemical (IHC) examinations and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) while enabling high levels of standardization and reliability. The new HER2 cell line microarray is perfect for cancer research establishments and laboratories that require results whilst not compromising on consistency or quality.

AMSBIO offer a wide range of high quality FFPE cancer cell line controls for your research. Manufactured using a proprietary process that maintains both cell morphology and preserves nucleic acids and proteins, the AMSBIO range of FFPE cancer cell line products offer affordable and consistent controls from 100 tumor cell lines, without compromising quality or consistency. These cell line controls combat issues experienced with traditional cell or tissue-based control specimens such as intra specimen variation, lot-to-lot variations and inconsistent biomolecule quality. FFPE controls provide the most flexible cell-based products for immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization and next generation screening applications.

ImmunologyImmunological techniques measure and characterize immune responses. Immunology kits and analysis systems often use techniques such as ELISA, radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunodiffusion assays, Immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. Immunologists use equipment such as flow Cytometers, plate readers, plate washers and fluorescent microscopes.Cellular PathologyCellular Pathology deals with the microscopic analysis of tissue samples and cells. Sample preparation and processing includes fixation, staining, sectioning and slide mounting, using equipment such microtomes and cryostats. In choosing immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry kits, consider chromogens, staining method, antibodies, microscopes and imaging.ImmunohistochemistryImmunohistochemistry (IHC) is a technique used to detect specific proteins in tissue samples by using antibodies that bind to target antigens. IHC is widely applied in pathology, immunology, hematology and cancer diagnostics.

Quality control is a monitoring procedure or set of procedures that are put in place to ensure that a manufactured product adheres to a defined set of quality criteria. FFPEFormalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are commonly used in medical research, particularly in histology and cancer studies. The preservation process allows long-term storage of tissue samples for later analysis.
