Product Information
The PK10018 kit is designed for developing a complete IHC workflow on FFPE samples using primary antibodies raised in mice. The kit contains all the basic reagents, starting from antigen retrieval buffer to mounting media, that would be required for IHC staining of tissue sections with mouse primary antibodies. By simply optimizing the primary antibody concentration and a few operational parameters, a complete IHC workflow can be easily established using this kit.

Storage
All the reagents are stored at 2-8°C. The kit is stable for 6 months from the date of receipt.
Application Note
This kit is recommended for FFPE tissues and not for frozen sections.
This kit contains an antigen retrieval buffer based on Tris-EDTA by default, which in our experience is suitable for over 90% of targets. However, if a negative result is obtained using this buffer, we recommend trying alternative buffers listed below.
# PR30001 Sodium Citrate Antigen Retrieval Buffer 50x
# PR30014 Protease K Retrieval Buffer (A+B) (Heating is not required with this buffer)
