Enzymatic double-staining IHC kits

Simplifying multicolor enzymatic IHC.

DoubleStain IHC detection systems

DoubleStain enzymatic IHC detection systems provide you with reagents and optimized protocols for staining two antigens on a tissue-section using immuno-enzymatic detection.

  • Rodent specific kits have been tested on paraffin-embedded mouse tissue
  • Human specific kits have been tested on paraffin embedded human tissue

The kits also allow various combinations of primary antibodies and a choice enzymatic labels. Use the key below to identify the most suitable system.

Multicolor enzymatic systems offer

  • Reduced background
    • when staining tissue containing endogenous biotin (eg kidney, liver and spleen) using an HRP and AP polymer based system
  • Optimized protocol
    • simultaneously incubate primary antibodies and subsequently simultaneously incubate enzyme conjugated secondary antibodies
  • Better signal to noise ratio
    • primer used for clear visualization of staining and morphology
  • Color combinations
    • red/green, red/purple or red/brown
  • Use of mouse antibodies on mouse tissue
    • protocols for blocking endogenous mouse IgG
  • Combination with special stains where compatible

Applications

Our double-staining IHC kits can enable you to perform multicolor IHC experiments where you can

  • Stain different cell types to get an overview of their location in tissue specimens
  • Identify cells using a structural marker as well as an antibody against your target protein
  • Search for co-localization when combining cellular markers with activation markers
  • Perform histology experiments using visible color with no need to use a fluorescence microscope
  • Combine with fluorescent in-situ hybridization markers to simultaneously study protein and mRNA protein levels
