Does anyone else have constant problems with the Ventana antibody H pylori having a dirty background stain?  My pathologists are constantly complaining about it and when I call CS I get the same response...decon the instrument, try a new lot number, etc... it's never truly resolved.  Any thoughts?  Thanks!

Is the Ventana antibody polyclonal or monoclonal?

We have great luck with Cell Marque antibody on our Ventana Benchmark Ultra
using UltraView DAB detection. He have had dirty staining for spirochetes
(syphilis) in the past utilizing the Red Detection kit and decons do seem to
help a bit. The DAB detection kit is much cleaner.

Happy Friday1
We are experiencing the same problem. Just had a site visit from Ventana and they suggested using an antibody dilution buffer. Use an option kit filled with Ventana Product ADB250 (antibody dilution buffer). Check options in protocol editing and 8 minutes, suggested time. Have not tried it but inted to. Good luck.

We have excellent and very clean results with the VMS H. Pylori on our Ultras. I can shoot you our protocol if you're interested.
