This protocol describes our method for preparing cells for immunofluorescence in which all incubations and washes are performed in microtiter dishes. Two dishes can be processed simultaneously. The la ...
DescriptionThis is the method for direct immunofluorescence labeling; that is the antibodies have the fluorescent dye attached. Direct labeling is simpler and quicker than indirect labeling. Procedure ...
Direct Immunofluorescence Staining cells with antibodies directly linked to fluorochromes is known as direct immunofluorescence (DIF). DIF lends itself to multicolour experiments where a cell suspensi ...
This protocol is recommended for rat tissue fixed by paraformaldehyde-picric acid perfusion Tissue preparation:Subjects transcardially perfused with heparanized saline (0.9 w/v NaCl) followed by 4 w/v ...
BackgroundThis is the method for indirect immunofluorescence labeling; that is the antibodies do not have the fluorescent dye attached. Indirect labeling is more involved than direct labeling. If you ...

The indirect ELISA is used primarily to determine the strength and/or amount of antibody response in a sample whether it is from the serum of an immunized animal or the cell supernatant from growing h ...
The sandwich ELISA measures the amount of antigen between two layers of antibodies. The antigens to be measured must contain at least two antigenic sites capable of binding to antibody since at least ...

Source of unwanted staining besides poor knowledge of the antibody reactivity and malice is due to: Endogenous enzymes or fluorochromes. Endogenous biotin. Endogenous antibody binding activity (Fc rec ...
Introduction: This method for the detection of cellular proliferation includes several modifications of a previously published protocol (Hayashi et al. 1988 J. Histochem. Cytochem. 36:511-514). This m ...
