Immunohistochemistry HELP--paraffin vs frozen sections

... Pharmingen - Cat # 550397 CD3 by BD Bioscience Pharmingen - Cat # 550367 I used the DAKO Labs' developer kit (with the Biotinylated Link and Streptavidin-HRP) and DAB chromogen for the staining, and Mayer's Hemotoxylin for the counter-stain. The results were not very good. The Pharmingen ...

... then subjected to tyramide signal amplification according to the manufacturer's instructions (TSA indirect, NEN Life Sciences, Boston, MA). Cy5-streptavidin (Amersham, Piscataway, NJ) at 1 mg/mL was diluted 1:500 and added to the slides for fluorescence signal detection. Tissue sections were ...

The Fiber Disease

... is demonstrated by detecting DNA targets . Single-strand DNA (ssDNA) probes labeled with biotin were immobilized onto microbeads coated with streptavidin . The DNA-functionalized microbeads were packed into each of three microchambers by injection through inlet wells . Three oligonucleotides ...

Re: Denaturing agents to convert d.s Lambda DNA to s.s DNA

... (7249 bp) DNA) 2.What are the denaturing agents that can be used to denature a double strand (e.g. Lambda DNA) to get a single strand, preserving streptavidin-biotin bonds? Also what’s the ideal pH and salt concentration to keep the single strand intact after the double stranded DNA was denatured? ...

... Some modifications to the original method include hybridization of biotinylated gene-specific degenerate oligo and subsequent stringent washes of streptavidin coated paramagnetic beads after affinity separation. A PCR with nested primer from second RnaseH motif followed this capture. A study of ...
