Biotinylated anti rat antibody

Manufactured by Vector Laboratories
Sourced in United States

Biotinylated anti-rat antibody is a laboratory reagent used to detect the presence of rat-specific proteins or target molecules in various biological samples. It is a secondary antibody conjugated with biotin, which can be used in a variety of immunoassay techniques, such as ELISA, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry, to amplify the signal and enhance the sensitivity of the detection process.

Histological Analysis of Atherosclerotic Lesions

The sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE), Movat's pentachrome16 (link)), or Masson trichrome17 (link)). HE staining was used to determine the size of the necrotic core. Immunostaining was performed as described previously9 (link), 18 (link)). In brief, the sections were incubated with the primary antibody against mouse MOMA-2 (1:600; Bio-Rad) or α-SMA (1:100; abcam) overnight at 4°C. After washing, the sections were incubated with biotinylated anti-rat antibody (1:200; Vector Labs) or anti-rabbit antibody (1:200; Vector Labs) for 2 h at 37°C, and then with avidin-biotin peroxidase complex (Vector Labs) for 30 min. Last, the sections were developed with 3, 3'-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (DAB) (Sigma), and counterstained with hematoxylin.

Assessing Cerebral IgG Extravasation

Ten μm sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) for examination of ischemic and haemorrhagic lesions. Additional 10 μm sections were immunostained for IgG to assess cerebral IgG extravasation as an index of blood brain barrier breakdown. For this reason, deparaffinized sections were soaked in 3% hydrogen peroxide to block endogenous peroxidase activity and were incubated for 1 hr with a biotinylated anti-rat antibody (1:200; Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA). The immunoreaction was visualized with diaminobenzidine. The cerebral vessels showing IgG extravasation density (number for mm2) was quantified in 20 randomly selected fields spanning the frontal cortex.

Four-micrometer sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded lung tissues were immunostained for α7-nAChR (AChRα7 (319): sc-58607, rat monoclonal antibody, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Santa Cruz, CA), using the standard avidin-biotin complex immunoperoxidase method (Vectastain ABC-Elite; Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA). Briefly, the tissue sections were incubated with a primary antibody at a dilution of 1:50. Subsequently, the sections were incubated with biotinylated anti-rat antibody (Vector Laboratories, Inc., Burlingame, CA), diluted 1:250, and further incubated with VECTASTAIN Elite ABC reagent. The sections were subsequently processed with peroxidase substrate solution. The sections were then counterstained with hematoxylin. The sections were examined under light microscopy.

Macrophage Detection in Islet Grafts

Immunohistochemistry was performed as described previously 16 . Kidneys carrying islet grafts were snap frozen in precooled 2-methylbutanolin liquid nitrogen. Sections of 5-μm size were fixed in cold acetone for 3 min, followed by immunohistochemistry with anti-F4/80 antibody (1:1,000; Serotec, Oxford, UK) to detect the presence of macrophages in the transplanted islets. The secondary antibody was biotinylated anti-rat antibody (1:1,000; Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA, USA). Slides were observed under light microscopy.

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.
