This Immunohistochemistry Detection Kit (Broad Spectrum), Mouse Tissue, BioAssay(TM) is designed to allow immunohistochemical studies of mouse or rat tissue samples using mouse, rabbit, rat and guinea pig primary antibodies. The kit incorporates a highly sensitive horseradish peroxidase (HRP) second antibody to increase sensitivity. Detection system is faster and cleaner because it uses one step instead of two steps, as in the LAB-SA method for the secondary antibody step. After the user-supplied primary antibody is incubated with the sample, an HRP-conjugated, affinity-purified secondary antibody is bound to the primary antibody . A chromogen/substrate system then creates an intense deposit around the antigen/antibody/enzyme complex in the sample.
The kit incorporates with a high sensitive horseradish peroxidase (HRP) second antibody to increase sensitivity. And the detection system is faster and cleaner because it uses one step of HRP conjugated to second antibody instead of two steps, as in the LAB-SA(3) method. Does not contain biotin or streptavidin, so potential background due to endogenous biotin activity is completely avoided. In addition, a special blocking system is used to eliminate background staining. After a user-supplied primary antibody is incubated with the sample, a HRP-conjugated, affinity-purified secondary antibody is bound to the primary antibody. An AEC chromogen/substrate system then creates an intense red deposit around the antigen/antibody/enzyme complex in the sample.
