PG - 490-3 AB - A novel re-hybridization protocol for pathology archive sections that uses microwave-assisted fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is described. Stripping the probe from the pathology archive sections with HCl and re-hybridizing with the next probe by intermittent microwave irradiation generated clear signals without background noise. Repeated stripping and hybridization with numerous bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)-derived probes would identify the profile of genome-wide changes in small lesions on sections.
