Anyone finding issues with getting p16 IHC (Roche CINTECH) now? They are saying is it discontinued and unable to order. I go through a vial every other month or so and am on my last pack.
 
From my understanding no. I believe Roche had it their platform protected by patent until recently. I can't tell what is really going on...?
 
p16 interp is totally PITA, outsource it. trust me.
 
I've not found it difficult at all. I find it quite qualitative myself. I use it in head and neck SCCa as well as cervical/anal/genital squamous dysplasia.

Does anyone know of a different source for p16 IHC, preferably ready-to-use that they would recommend? Mercedes medical has one listed that appears inexpensive?
 
They are discontinuing this product and releasing an FDA cleared product for P16 (antibody clone E6H4). Discontinuation of the old product is a requirement of the FDA clearance. Here is the new product catalog number.
