[Histonet] ARC immunohistochemistry- "sticky sections" in DAB

2016-06-29 Thread Michelle Chang via Histonet
Hi Gabrielle,

Are you doing floating sections?  Did you cut the tissue recently?  Do you
notice your tissue is also "sticky"? If you do, there is a possibility that
the tissue may be infected by bacteria. Try washing the tissue with PBS or
TBS with 0.1% sodium azide a couple time. Sometimes it help.

Good Luck

Best,
Michelle

[Histonet] ARC immunohistochemistry- "sticky sections" in DAB

2016-06-29 Thread Gabrielle Pollack via Histonet
To whom it may concern,

I am a undergraduate researcher at Vassar College. I am performing
immunohistochemistry on mice using Arc primary, anti-mouse biotinylated IgG
(1:200),ABC (Vector labs) and DAB. So far we have gotten really great
staining, however the last immuno I ran, the sections, once in DAB were
sticking to the bottom of the wells. Does anyone have any idea as to why
this would happen? Thank you!

Best,
Gabrielle
