Study Notes
- The purpose of this standard operating procedure (SOP) is to explain the detection procedure for in situ hybridization (ISH).
- In situ hybridization (ISH) uses labeled probes to detect specific DNA or RNA target sequences in fixed or frozen tissue sections.
- Target sequences are exposed by heating the tissue and probe solution to denature nucleic acids.
- The reaction is then cooled allowing the labeled nucleic acid probe to hybridize to its complementary nucleic acid sequence in the tissue.
- The hybridization of the probe to the nucleic acid sequence is visualized with an indirect detection method.
- The most common indirect techniques use an antibody directed against an enzyme linked with a corresponding substrate-chromogen system.
- This combination results in a colored precipitate at the site of specific antibody binding.
- The ISH Iview Blue Plus Detection Kit uses the indirect method to visualize complementary nucleic acid sequences by depositing a blue colored precipitate.
- The quality control procedure for staining controls is to examine them first to ascertain that all reagents are functioning properly. If there is staining in the negative control, it may indicate non-specific cross reactivity to cells or cellular components.
- The quality control procedure for in situ hybridization studies is to run the controls concurrently with the probe slides. The morphologic interpretation and correlation of results are performed by a qualified pathologist.
- The quality control procedure for patient specimens is to examine them last. If the positive or negative controls fail to demonstrate appropriate staining, any results with the test specimens should be considered invalid.
- The Insitu Hybridization Detection Procedure (HIS) is a test that uses DNA or RNA probes to identify specific sequences in cells or tissue.
- The test is performed by heating the tissue and probe solution to denature nucleic acids, then cooling the reaction to allow the labeled nucleic acid probe to hybridize to its complementary nucleic acid sequence in the tissue.
- The probe prep kit contains various reagents and probe types that need to be mixed before use.
- The ISH iVIEW Blue Plus Detection Kit can identify positive and negative results for specific nucleic acid sequences.
- Certain endometrial tissues may exhibit false positive staining when stained with the ISH iVIEWBlue Plus Detection Kit.
- The quality control run form is a consolidated document that summarizes the key facts from the text above.
- The quality control run form was created on 22-Feb-2023 and is currently effective.
- The quality control run form is a copy of the Insitu Hybridization Detection Procedure (HIS).
- The quality control run form is approved and current.
- The quality control run form is effective starting 24-Jun-2022.
