BrightDAB

Intended use: For In Vitro Diagnostic Use. The BrightDAB substrate DAB is intended for use in immunohistochemistry.

Summary and explanation: The BrightDAB substrate DAB (3,3’Diaminobenzidine) is a widely used chromogen for immunohistochemical staining and immunoblotting. When in the presence of peroxidase enzyme, DAB produces a brown precipitate that is insoluble in alcohol and xylene. This product comes in a two-component system consisting of a liquid stable DAB chromogen and DAB substrate buffer. DAB Solution A: Ready–to-Use Buffered H2O2,; DAB Solution B: Concentrated DAB solution. BrightDAB is a very stable and superior formulation of DAB. In some cases, antibodies titers may increase by two-fold. BrightDAB can be used both manually and on automated stainers.The clinical interpretation of any staining or its absence should be determined by a qualified pathologist and complemented by morphologic studies; controls should be evaluated within the context of the patient’s clinical history and/or other diagnostic tests. Also available in 500 ml and 1000 ml.

Reagents provided: DAB Solution A: Buffered H2O2 (Ready-to-Use) 110 ml DAB Solution B: Concentrated DAB solution 5 ml

Storage and handling: 2-8°C and in the dark

Principle of method: DAB substrate for use with HRP-labeled detection systems

Reagent preparation: 1 Working solution: Add 40 μl DAB Solution B (± one drop) to 1 ml Solution A, mix well. 2 Incubate the DAB solution one time 8 minutes without washing in between.
