Diaminobenzidine dab detection kit

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in Australia

The Diaminobenzidine (DAB) detection kit is a laboratory reagent used for the visualization of targeted proteins in various applications, such as immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and Western blotting. The kit contains a chromogenic substrate that, when oxidized by the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP), produces a brown precipitate at the site of the target protein, allowing for its detection and localization.

Quantification of TROP2 Expression in Prostate Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Slides of human prostate cancer tissues were obtained and stained under ethics agreement HREC2012.275 (Royal Melbourne Hospital, Melbourne, Australia). Sections were dewaxed, rehydrated and antigen retrieval was performed for 15 min in Citrate buffer (pH 6.10). Endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked using 3% H2O2 in MetOH for 20min at room temperature. Slides were incubated for 2h in blocking buffer alone, followed by an overnight incubation at 4C in blocking buffer containing anti-TROP2 or isotype antibodies (BD Bioscience 551317, 1/500). Biotinylated anti-mouse secondary antibody (1/500, AbCAM) was incubated for 30 min at room temperature, followed by Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA)(Perkin Elmer, Melbourne, Australia), revelation with diaminobenzidine (DAB) detection kit (AbCAM, Melbourne, Australia), Ethanol/Xylene dehydration and mounting. The percentage of cells considered as positive for TROP2 staining (cf example in Figure 1A) was calculated after counting positive and total cell numbers in 5 randomly chosen fields of approximately 100 tumor cells.

Immunohistochemistry of Paraffin-Embedded Tumors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Freshly isolated tumors were fixed in 10% formalin and embedded in paraffin. For immunohistochemistry, tumor sections were deparaffinized, rehydrated, microwaved in 10 mmol/L citrate buffer for 30 min, and incubated in 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS for 30 min. Sections were blocked using an Avidin-biotin blocking Kit (Abcam), and subsequently incubated with primary antibodies at the dilutions suggested by the manufacturer for 1 h, followed by secondary antibody for 30 min at room temperature. The diaminobenzidine (DAB) detection Kit (Abcam) was used to detect signals. Images were captured by light microscope (Leica DM4B).

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.
