Bioworld Consulting Laboratories VirArray™ HHV-6 Control Cell Slides consist of control cell lines embedded in a paraffin block and mounted on to slides. The cell lines are paraffin-embedded after controlled fixation in buffered formalin for 24 hours. The control slide for HHV-6 analysis contains 2 cell cores in quadruplicate: a negative control cell line, and HHV-6 positive cell line containing viral genome under going replication and expressing viral early and late antigens. The HHV-6 infected cells are pooled from infected cells at various stages of viral replication therefore presenting viral antigens associated with early and late phases of the viral cycle.
The small surface area of the control slide is advantageous as it allows side-by-side analysis of the sample tissue specimen. Simply mount your tissue sample of interest directly on the control slide for side-by-side analysis. When stained together, this system provides an “On-Slide-Control-Staining”, which enables you to archive the stained control together with the investigated sample, proving, even after years, the reliability of your staining.
The system is suitable for Immunohistochemistry (IHC) or In Situ Hybridization (ISH) applications.
