What is the minimum formalin fixation time for consistent estrogen receptor immunohistochemical staining of invasive breast carcinoma?
Evaluation of estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER, PR) and HER2 expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) are routinely performed in breast carcinomas.
Formalin fixation of tissue for a minimum of 6 hours, and for HER2 not more than 48 hours is the current recommended practice.
How long can breast tissue be in formalin?
Due to CAP-recommended guidelines for ER, PR, and HER2/neu (including FISH) testing, as much as possible, specimens should be placed in formalin within one hour after surgery.
Furthermore, the breast tissue should be in contact with formalin for 6-48 hours, not to exceed 72 hours.
What is the fixation time for formalin?
The minimum formalin fixation time for reliable immunohistochemical ER results is 6 to 8 hours in our laboratory, regardless of the type or size of specimen.
Formaldehyde fixation is tissue thickness independent between 16 microm and 4 mm but is faster at above room temperature, so the fixation of specimens with less than 24 hours in formalin can be improved if the fixing stations in the conventional tissue processors are set at 40 degrees C.
