IHC detection kits - Single staining
Immunohistochemistry is a technique of histology aimed at locating a target protein in a tissue. There is also a derived technique, immunocytochemistry (ICC) which has the same principle but aims to localize a given protein in isolated cells.
It is important to choose the appropriate combination of antibodies and the correct detection system in order to obtain the best possible results depending on the sample and the target protein.
Detection kits for immunohistochemistry (IHC) usually contain detection antibodies and detection system (depending on the method chosen) as well as blocking and dilution buffers and the substrate. There may be variants depending on the kits and your needs: with or without buffers, with or without substrates ...
We propose kits for the 2 main methods used for detection in immunohistochemistry: the ABC method which uses an Avidin (streptavidin) / Biotin complex and the method that uses enzyme polymers to amplify the signal.
