Tissues were fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin for a minimum of 7 days with two changes of formalin. Tissues were placed in cassettes and processed with a Sakura VIP-6 Tissue Tek, on a 12-h automated schedule, using a graded series of ethanol, xylene, and ParaPlast Extra. Embedded tissues are sectioned at 5 μm and dried overnight at 42°C before staining.
Specific anti-CoV immunoreactivity was detected using GenScript U864YFA140-4/CB2093 NP-1 at a 1:1,000 dilution. The secondary antibody is the Vector Laboratories ImPress VR anti-rabbit IgG polymer (cat# MP-6401). The tissues were then processed for immunohistochemistry using the Discovery Ultra automated processor (Ventana Medical Systems) with a ChromoMap DAB kit (Roche Tissue Diagnostics cat#760-159).

Necropsies and tissue sampling were performed according to IBC-approved protocols. Tissues were fixed for a minimum of 7 days in 10% neutral buffered formalin with 2 changes. Tissues were placed in cassettes and processed with a Sakura VIP-6 Tissue Tek, on a 12-hour automated schedule, using a graded series of ethanol, xylene, and PureAffin. Prior to staining, embedded tissues were sectioned at 5 μm and dried overnight at 42°C. Using GenScript U864YFA140–4/CB2093 NP-1 (1:1000) specific anti-CoV immunoreactivity was detected using the Vector Laboratories ImPress VR anti-rabbit IgG polymer (# MP-6401) as secondary antibody. The tissues were then processed using the Discovery Ultra automated processor (Ventana Medical Systems) with a ChromoMap DAB kit Roche Tissue Diagnostics (#760–159). Anti-CD3 immunoreactivity was detected utilizing a primary antibody from Roche Tissue Diagnostics predilute (#790–4341), secondary antibody from Vector Laboratories ImPress VR anti-rabbit IgG polymer (# MP-6401) and visualized using the ChromoMap DAB kit from Roche Tissue Diagnostics (#760–159). Anti-PAX5 immunoreactivity was detected utilizing a primary antibody from Novus Biologicals at 1:500 (#NBP2–38790), secondary antibody from Vector Laboratories ImPress VR anti-rabbit IgG polymer (# MP-6401) and visualized using the ChromoMap DAB kit from Roche Tissue Diagnostics (#760–159).

Histopathology and IHC were performed on rhesus macaque tissues. After fixation for a minimum of 7 days in 10% neutral-buffered formalin and embedding in paraffin, tissue sections were stained with H&E. Tissues were placed in cassettes and processed with a Sakura VIP-6 Tissue Tek on a 12-hour automated schedule, using a graded series of ethanol, xylene, and ParaPlast Extra. Embedded tissues were sectioned at 5 μm and dried overnight at 42°C before staining. Specific anti-CoV immunoreactivity was detected using GenScript U864YFA140-4/CB2093 NP-1 at a 1:1000 dilution. The secondary antibody was an anti–rabbit IgG polymer from Vector Laboratories ImPress VR. Tissues were then processed for IHC using the Discovery Ultra automated processor (Ventana Medical Systems) with a ChromoMap DAB Kit (Roche Tissue Diagnostics). Stained slides were analyzed by a board-certified veterinary pathologist.

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.
