Recommended Immunohistochemistry Protocol
The following protocol is a recommendation only, and AAA Biotech makes no guarantee of the results:
Tissue Preparation:
Formalin fixation and embedding in paraffin wax.
Tissue Sectioning:
Make 4-um sections and place on pre-cleaned and charged microscope slides. Heat in a tissue-dryingoven for 45 minutes at 60°C.
Deparaffinization:
Wash dry slides in 3 changes of xylene - 5 minutes each @ RT
Rehydration:
Wash slides in 3 changes of 100% alcohol - 3 minutes each @ RT
Wash slides in 2 changes of 95% alcohol - 3 minutes each @ RT
Wash slides in 1 change of 80% alcohol - 3 minutes @ RT
Rinse slides in gentle running distilled water - 5 minutes @ RT
Antigen retrieval:
Steam slides in 0.01 M sodium citrate buffer, pH 6.0 at 99-100°C - 20 minutes
Remove from heat and let stand at room temperature in buffer - 20 minutes
Rinse in 1X TBS with Tween (TBST) -1 minute @ RT
Immunostaining:
(Do not allow tissues to dry at any time during the staining procedure)
Apply a universal protein block - 20 minutes @ RT
Drain protein block from slides, apply diluted primary antibody - 45 minutes @ RT
Rinse slides in 1 X TBST - 1 minute @ RT
Apply a biotinylated secondary antibody appropriate for the primary antibody - 30 minutes @ RT
Rinse slides in 1X TBST -1 minute @ RT
Apply alkaline phosphatase streptavidin - 30 minutes @ RT
Rinse slides in 1X TBST -1 minute @ RT
Apply alkaline phosphatase chromogen substrate - 30 minutes @ RT
Wash slides in distilled water - 1 minute @ RT
Dehydrate:
(This method should only be used if the chromogen substrate is alcohol insoluble (e.g. Vector Red, DAB)
Wash slides in 2 changes of 80% alcohol - 1 minute each @ RT
Wash slides in 2 changes of 95% alcohol - 1 minute each @ RT
Wash slides in 3 changes of 100% alcohol - 1 minute each @ RT
Wash slides in 3 changes of xylene - 1 minute each @ RT
Apply coverslip

Related Product Information for anti-EGFR antibody
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a tyrosine protein kinase comprised of two different components of different molecular weights. Both components contain phosphotyrosine and phosphothreonine but only the higher molecular weight component contains phosphoserine. EGFR signaling involves small GTPases of the Rho family and EGFR trafficking involves small GTPases of the Rab family. EGFR expression is widespread in both normal and cancerous tissues.

Product Notes
The EGFR egfr (Catalog #AAA50860) is an Antibody produced from Sheep and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Sheep Polyclonal (IgG) to Human EGFR reacts with Chicken, Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's EGFR can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA, IP (Immunoprecipitation), WB (Western Blot), IF (Immunofluorescence), ICC (Immunocytochemistry), IHC (Immunohistochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EGFR egfr for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EGFR, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
