Technical Information This chromogen can be used singly or in combination with other alkaline phosphatase or peroxidase substrates for multiple label applications. Because of its stability under ISH conditions, Vector® Red can be used in IHC/ISH double labeling applications. The bright red to orange fluorescence of the Vector Red reaction product can be visualized using DyLight™ 594, Texas Red® or TRITC filter systems. This fluorescence is especially bright in dehydrated, permanently mounted sections. The fluorescence is stable and does not photobleach like most fluorescent dyes. This substrate can also be used for in situ hybridization or on blots, where it has a wider dynamic range than other substrates. This kit contains stock solutions in convenient dropper bottles.

Product FAQs
I have Vector Red AP substrate kit, SK-5100. The instructions for use suggest making a working solution with 100-200 mM Tris buffer. Can I use a 50 mM Tris buffer instead?
Vector Red substrate kit (SK-5100) does require a Tris buffer with a minimum of 100 mM to be present for a reaction to satisfactorily occur. It is recommended to use a 200 mM Tris buffer at pH 8.2-8.5 for the most optimal staining results. If a buffer with < 100 mM Tris is used to make up the Vector Red working solution it may be that no reaction will occur.
