IHC Kit Picker

Use this template below to choose your personalised IHC kit based on the species of your primary antibody.

KEY:


↓1) Select species primary antibody raised in                  
→2) Check options of species to be used on 
→3) Type of detection kit you'd like 
↓4) Check for extras! 

This is not an exhaustive list for ALL IHC! This list ONLY covers 'regular' Immunohistochemistry for Vector Laboratories. Xenograft tissues may require different treatment.

Multiple labelling can be possible, as can Immunofluorescence, Immunocytochemistry, PLA and others.

If you have any doubts or concerns, ask our in house IHC expert.

N.B. It is highly recommend to use IHC Validated antibodies where possible, e.g. MS Validated antibodies LSBio IHC Plus & PathPlus ranges. Generally, these are tested on FFPE, or Paraffin sections. Keep in mind that fixation can greatly affect the success of this method.

Try it for yourself!
