Principles and Procedures
Visualization of the antigen present in tissue sections is accomplished in a multi-step immunohistochemical staining process, in conjunction with a horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or alkaline phosphatase (AP) linked detection system. The process involves the addition of the stated antibody (primary antibody) to a tissue slide, followed by a secondary antibody (linked to an enzyme complex) which specifically binds to the primary antibody. A chromogenic substrate is then added which reacts with the enzyme complex, resulting in a colorimetric reaction at the site of the antigen. Results are interpreted using a light microscope.
Reconstitution
The prediluted antibody does not require any mixing, dilution, reconstitution, or titration; the antibody is ready-to-use and optimized for staining.
The concentrated antibody requires dilution in the optimized buffer, to the recommended working dilution range.
Specimen Collection and Preparation for Analysis
Each tissue section should be fixed with 10% neutral buffered formalin, cut to the applicable thickness (4um), and placed on a glass slide that is positively charged. The prepared slide may then be baked for a minimum of 30 minutes in a 53-65 degree C oven (do not exceed 24 hours).
Note: Performance evaluation has been shown on human tissues only. Variable results may occur due to extended fixation time or special processes of specific tissue preparations.
Application Notes for anti-PAX-8 antibody
The recommended working dilution range is 1:100 - 1:200.

NCBI Summary for PAX-8

This gene encodes a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of this gene family typically encode proteins that contain a paired box domain, an octapeptide, and a paired-type homeodomain. This nuclear protein is involved in thyroid follicular cell development and expression of thyroid-specific genes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with thyroid dysgenesis, thyroid follicular carcinomas and atypical follicular thyroid adenomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
