Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - Anti-Dopamine Transporter antibody [EPR19695] (AB184451)

IHC image of Dopamine Transporter staining in a section of formalin fixed paraffin embedded normal human striatum* performed on a Leica BOND™. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was fixed in 10% paraformaldehyde (10 min) prior to staining. The section was incubated with ab184451, 5ugml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen.

The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
