Diagnostic Biosystems BROAD SPECTRUM Broad Spectrum Negative Control
Negative controls are used to determine the specificity of an antibody. No staining should be observed when the primary antibody is omitted. This product is specifically designed to work with rabbit, mouse and goat antibodies. The Broad Spectrum Negative Control has been titered to work with Polymer-based Secondary Systems in manual and automated IHC platforms.

Diagnostic Biosystems FIBRINOGEN-FITC Fibrinogen-FITC
This antibody reacts with native fibrinogen and with fibrinogen fragments D, E, X, and Y. Traces of contaminating antibodies have been removed by solid phase absorption with human plasma proteins. This antibody is well suited for tissue section staining but may also be used for other applications.
Diagnostic Biosystems NKX31 NKX3.1
The homeodomain-containing transcription factor NKX3-1 is a putative prostate tumorsuppressorthatis expressed in a largely prostate-specific and androgen-regulated manner. Loss of NKX3-1 protein expression is a common finding in human prostate carcinomas and prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia.
Diagnostic Biosystems MUCICARMINE Mucicarmine
Mucicarmine Stain Kit is intended for use in the histological visualization of acid mucopolysacharides in tissue sections. This product is useful in distinguishing mucin negative undifferentiated squamous cell lesions from mucin positive adenocarcinomas. In addition, this product will stain the mucopolysaccharide capsule of Cryptococcus neoformans.
Diagnostic Biosystems AMYLOID Amyloid Stain Kit (Congo Red)
The Amyloid Stain Kit (Congo Red) is intended for use in the histological visualization of amyloid in tissue sections. Examination under a polarizing microscope results in green birefringence of amyloid.
Diagnostic Biosystems PAX-8 PAX-8
PAX 8 is expressed in a high percentage of renal cell carcinomas and ovarian cancers. This mouse monoclonal PAX 8 antibody [4H7B3] has been designed to target restricted epitopes, and exhibits higher specificity and provides sharper staining than the PAX 8 rabbit polyclonal antibody. Unlike the polyclonal PAX 8, this mouse monoclonal antibody does not stain B-cells, and does not recognize epitopes of pancreatic origin and neuroendocrine cells in stomach and colon; thus providing superior specificity. The expression of the mouse monoclonal PAX 8 targets antigens found in normal kidney, thyroid and cervix, but not normal ovary. PAX 8 stains nuclei exclusively and performs well in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues.
Diagnostic Biosystems WARTHIN-STARRY Warthin-Starry
The Warthin-Starry Stain Kit is intended for use in the visualization of Spirochetes, Helicobacter pylori, Legionella pneumophila, and Cat Scratch Fever bacteria. This kit may be used on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections.
Diagnostic Biosystems CD117/C-KIT CD117/c-kit
This antibody reacts with a 145 kDa protein. CD117/c-kit is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase and is expressed in many tissues and cells. CD117/ckit is involved in the development of several lineages of stem cells, such as germ cells, neural crest derived melanocytes and hematopoietic precursor cells. This antibody can be used in the identification of gastrointestinal stromaltumors.
Diagnostic Biosystems CHROMOGRANIN A Chromogranin A (SP12)
This antibody recognizes Chromogranin A. Chromogranin A (a protein of 439 amino acid which is encoded on chromosome 14) is present in neuroendocrine cells throughout the body, including the neuroendocrine cells of the large and small intestine, adrenal medulla and pancreatic islets. It is an excellent marker for carcinoid tumors, pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, and other neuroendocrine tumors. Coexpression of chromogranin A and neuron specific enolase (NSE) is common in neuroendocrine neoplasms.
Diagnostic Biosystems INHIBIN Inhibin
Inhibin is a dimeric glycoprotein hormone from the TGF-β family made of α and β subunits. This antibody recognizes the 32kDa α subunit of human inhibin. Inhibin α is expressed in a wide variety of human tissues, such as brain, prostate, adrenal, granulose cells of ovary, sertoli cells of testis and in fetoplacental unit.
Diagnostic Biosystems TREPONEMA PALLIDUM Treponema Pallidum
Treponema pallidum is the causative agent of syphilis. It is a gram negative spirochete, a helical to sinusoidal bacterium with outer and cytoplasmic membranes, a thin peptidoglycan layer, and periplasmic flagella.
Diagnostic Biosystems FONTANA-MASSON Fontana-Masson
The Fontana-Masson Stain Kit is intended for use in the histological visualization of Argentaffin cells and Melanin in paraffin or frozen sections.
Diagnostic Biosystems TISSUE BOND Tissue Bond™ Reagent
TissueBond reacts with silica glass to change its surface chemistry so that it may bond either ionically or covalently with aldehyde and ketone groups in tissue sections.\n\nProper tissue adhesion to glass slides is a critical step in immunohistochemistry. Good immunostaining may require harsh pretreatment of tissues for antigen retrieval (e.g. proteolytic enzyme digestion, boiling in high pH buffer, treatment with detergents or saponin). Improper adhesion of tissue sections can lead to poor quality staining or even loss of tissue sections. White glue, albumen, chrome-gelatin, and poly-L-lysine increase background staining. There is a need for a tissue adhesive that can irreversibly bind tissue sections to glass without creating background staining. Glass treated with TissueBond can be used for both paraffin and frozen tissue sections.
Diagnostic Biosystems PERMAGREEN PLUS/AP PermaGreen Plus/AP
PermaGreen Plus/AP is a substrate-chromogen system designed to be used for either IHC or ISH when utilizing alkaline phosphatase. PermaGreen Plus/AP has been modified to increase stability and staining intensity, producing astrong green color that is insoluble in alcohol and xylene substitutes (both aliphatic hydrocarbon and citrus based); therefore sections can be dehydrated in alcohol, cleared in xylene substitute*, and permanently mounted. However, we recommend air drying slides and then permanently mounting. This chromogen substrate system may be used for both automation and manual use.
