Kristy:
I’m thinking along the same lines as Paula; is it possible that your detection
reagent contains only Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) as there a reactive enzyme?
If so, a peroxide/DAB solution simply won’t react with it. Can’t wait to see
your protocol, with detailed descriptions of the ant

It’s difficult to know without your full protocol, but you can easily test your

Hydrogen Peroxide gone bad / or not being added???

We are starting our IHC (fun times), we are having trouble with the DAB

Hi all,
We have a Leica ST5010 that we have had forever and love. We have gotten a lot
busier and need to eliminate the backup we currently get every day waiting to
load the racks. I think we need an extra oven or 2. So we are looking into
updating and will probably go with the ST5020 or the
