Are you eager to add multiplex immunohistochemistry to your experimental repertoire, but feeling unsure about how to begin? We’re here to help with this tips and tricks article.
Incorporating glycan analysis into your workflows is easier than you may think–especially when you use lectins, which are compatible with many commonly used lab assays. Join us as we walk through the key considerations to help you get started.
Adding multiple antibodies to your IHC protocol can lead to stunning scientific insights, but is sometimes technically challenging. Get answers to your multiplex immunostaining quandaries from Dr. Craig Pow in this tips and tricks article.
Lectins are essential in recognizing abnormal cell glycome and mediating tumor progression. That said, they can also be leveraged to enhance our knowledge of the glycome profiles of various cancers.
Why does glycobiology—the study of sugar chains—matter so much to our health? From the simplest to the most branched, carbohydrates are the key players in cellular functions—both healthy and pathological. This article summarizes the key elements of glycobiology in a nutshell.
Autofluorescence can make it difficult or impossible to distinguish antigen-specific signal from non-specific background. Learn how you can reduce autofluorescence in your immunofluorescence workflow.
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is an invaluable technique in a variety of fields—from basic research to clinical diagnosis—but using IHC to screen humanized antibodies in human tissue can be challenging. Learn how scientists are addressing those challenges, and how Vector Laboratories can help.
Protein in formalin-fixed tissue can undergo epitope masking, leading to reduction or elimination of antibody binding. Learn how antigen retrieval can reverse this masking.
No matter how you slice it, if your research includes immunohistochemistry or immunofluorescence, it’s a key part of your experimental workflow. If you aren’t the type of researcher who draws a heart around “Sectioning Day” on your lab calendar, cut yourself a little slack and read on for some tips and tricks.
