Summary and explanation

Principle of the procedure

Staining procedure

  1. Solution preparations:

 

DAB Visualization: Ultra DAB Substrate (Content 2A) and Ultra DAB chromogen (Content 2B) were mixed in a ratio of 20:1 (Put 50ul chromogen into 950ul substrate, for example). After preparation, immediately use it!

 

  1. Temperature condition:

 

Room temperature

 

  1. Procedures:

 

a)Paraffin sections were dewaxed, hydrated and rinsed with running water.

b)Epitope Retrieval

Apply antigen retrieval reagent according to instructions of primary antibody;

Rinse slides with running water for 1min; draw a circle with PAP pen outside tissue;

Rinse slides with wash buffer 2X 5min;

c)Proxidase Blocking (optional)

Remove wash buffer and drip proxidase blocking reagent on slides. Incubate it for 10min at room temperature.

Rinse slides with wash buffer, 2X 5min.

d)Adding Primary Antibody

Remove wash buffer and drip primary antibody on slides. Incubate it for 60min at room temperature.

Rinse slides with wash buffer, 2X 5min.

e)Adding Secondary Antibody

Remove wash buffer and drip Labelled Goat anti Mouse/Rabbit IgG polymer (Content 1) on slides. Incubate it for 30min at room temperature;

Rinse slides with wash buffer, 2X 5min.

f)Visualization

Remove wash buffer and drip DAB visualization (explained in solution preparation) on slides. Incubate it for 3-10 min at room temperature;

Rinse slides with wash buffer, 2X 5min.

Rinse slides with running water to stop visualization.

g)Counterstain

Remove water and drip Hematoxylin on slides. Rinse slides

with running water after 10-30 sec.

Blue slides with wash buffer and rinse with running water.

h)Dehydrate, transparent and mount

Soak in 70% ethanol for 2X 5min;

Soak in 96% ethanol, 2X 5min;

Soak in anhydrous ethanol, 2X 5min;

Soak in xylene, 2X 5min;

Interpretation of results

The immunostaining procedure causes a colored reaction product to precipitate at the antigen sites localized by the primary antibody.

 

A qualified pathologist experienced in immunohistochemistry procedures must evaluate positive and negative tissue controls before interpreting patient specimens.

Positive staining intensity should be assessed within the context of any background staining of the negative reagent control.

 

Note:

 

  • A negative result means that the antigen in question was not detected, but not that the antigen is not present in the cells/tissues tested. An antibody panel may be used to support the results in some circumstances. Additionally, the morphology of each tissue sample should be examined utilizing a hematoxylin and eosin stained section. A qualified pathologist must interpret the patient’s morphologic findings and pertinent clinical data.
  • Any alterations on epitope retrieval, incubation time, temperature, or methodology could lead to unwanted results.
  • Peroxidase Block should be used on tissue with abundant endogenous peroxidase content.
