Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Peroxidase IHC Detection Kit

Description

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Thermo Scientific™ Pierce Peroxidase IHC Detection Kit bundles the Pierce Metal Enhanced DAB Substrate Kit with all necessary components to stain, counterstain and preserve experimental results with frozen or paraffin tissue sections.

The color produced by DAB (3,3'-diaminobenzidine) can be intensified by the addition of metals such as nickel, copper, silver and cobalt that form more dense complexes upon reaction in HRP-peroxide substrate reactions. The Thermo Scientific Pierce Metal Enhanced DAB Substrate Kit optimizes this intensifying chemistry, producing an exceptionally sensitive colorimetric detection system for Western blot, dot-blot and immunohistochemistry applications. The near-black signal (precipitate) is easy to photograph.

Highlights:

• Incredible sensitivity – 50 times more sensitive than the traditional DAB method and 30 times more sensitive than other metal-intensified versions of DAB

• Low background, high intensity – get a crisp dark brown-black precipitate and, even with the increased intensity, background is almost nonexistent

• Six-hour stability – working solution is stable for more than six hours at room temperature! Other DAB substrates must be used immediately

• Convenient – eliminates the need to procure numerous reagents from various sources
