Elite vectastain abc reagents

Manufactured by Vector Laboratories
Sourced in United States

Elite Vectastain ABC reagents are a kit designed for the detection of antigens in biological samples. The kit includes an avidin-biotin complex (ABC) that binds to biotinylated secondary antibodies, enabling the visualization of target antigens. The reagents are suitable for use in various immunohistochemical and immunocytochemical techniques.

Quantitative Analysis of Catecholaminergic Neurons

One set of tissue sections from each rat in the BNST DSAP experiment (with each set containing a complete rostrocaudal series of sections spaced by 210 μm) was incubated in a mouse monoclonal antiserum against DbH (1:50,000; Millipore, MAB308; AB_2245740) followed by biotinylated donkey anti-mouse IgG (1:500; Jackson ImmunoResearch). Sections were then treated with Elite Vectastain ABC reagents (Vector) and reacted with diamino-benzidine (DAB).
Sections through the cNTS containing the A2 cell group and VLM containing the A1 cell group (~15.2–14.15 mm caudal to bregma) were imaged at 20x using a Keyence microscope (BZ-X710). The total number of DbH+ neurons were counted bilaterally in each region and averaged per section. Sections through the pontine locus coeruleus (LC; ~10–10.2 mm caudal to bregma) were imaged at 10x. Due to extremely dense DbH labeling in the LC, it was not possible to visualize and accurately count individual DbH+ cells. Instead, a region of interest (ROI) encompassing the DbH labeling in LC was drawn using Image J bilaterally and the area of each ROI was measured and averaged across four LC ROIs (equivalent to bilateral LC in 2 tissue sections per rat).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
