Goat VisUCyte HRP Polymer-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit

Detection of Vimentin in Human Liver. Tissue sections were first incubated with Human/Mouse/Rat Vimentin Antibody (AF2105) and then subjected to staining development using Goat IgG VisUCyte HRP-DAB Kit (Catalog # VCTS004B). Specific staining was localized to the cytoplasm. Note strong and high contrast specific tissue staining and the absence of non-specific background staining produced by the VisUCyte kit.

Detection of Meprin beta Subunit/MEP1B in Human Duodenum. Tissue sections were first incubated with Goat Anti-Human MEP1B Polyclonal Antibody (AF2895) and then subjected to staining development using Goat VisUCyte HRP Polymer-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (Catalog #VCTS004B). Specific staining was confined to the striated border of the intestinal epithelium. Note strong and high contrast specific tissue staining produced and the absence of non-specific background staining.

Side-by-side comparison of staining using different detection chemistries on adjacent tissue sections of Human Breast Cancer. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) breast cancer tissue microarray (TMA) sections were incubated with Goat Anti-Human BRCA1 antibody (AF2210), then subjected to staining development using either Goat VisUCyte HRP Polymer-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (Catalog# VCTS004B) or conventional HRP-DAB detection chemistry. Strong specific tissue staining is seen using VisUCyte kit whereas conventional HRP-DAB detection produced little or no staining. In clinical research, using VisUCyte kits allows for high-sensitivity detection of cancer biomarkers compared to conventional HRP-DAB protocol.

Side-by-side comparison of staining using different detection chemistries on adjacent tissue sections of Human Kidney Tumor. Vimentin was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human kidney tumor using Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Vimentin Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF2105) at 1 µg/ml overnight at 4 °C followed by incubation with the Goat VisUCyte HRP Polymer-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (Catalog # VCTS004B) and a generic Avidin-biotin kit. Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to the membrane. Strong specific tissue staining is seen using VisUCyte kit.
