Features

Our 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.

Our FFPE controls provide the most flexible cell-based products for immunohistochemistry (IHC), in situ hybridization (ISH) and NGS applications.

  • Proprietary manufacturing process: maintains cell morphology and preserves nucleic acids and proteins
  • High density but well-separated cells
  • Optimized tissue-processing protocol and storage conditions
  • Precision sectioning
  • Cross-block homogeneity: <5% cell number variation from beginning to end of each block
  • Single pellet slides, arrays, scrolls, and whole blocks available
  • Versatile customization available

Please see our FFPE Cell Line Controls presentation for more information.

Potential Applications

Immunohistochemistry

These slides are perfect controls for immunohistochemical applications. Cells are prepared by standard trypsinization or a proprietary trypsin-free method to best preserve cell surface antigens while inflicting minimal damage that leads to loss of biomarkers.

In situ hybridization

Nucleic acids are perfectly preserved in the cell pellets and are ready for DNA and RNA in situ hybridization (RNA ISH).

Featured Product - HER2 Control Array

This FFPE cell pellet array has a spectrum of HER2/ER/PR expression validated by the Ventana system, making it ideal for use as a slide control for breast cancer clinical testing. It is composed of 4x 2mm cores with each one being HER2 0, HER2 1+, HER2 2+, and HER2 3+. For further details, please refer to the datasheet.
