Description

The ImmunoStar monoclonal Tyrosine Hydroxylase antiserum was quality control tested using standard immunohistochemical methods. The antiserum demonstrates strongly positive labeling of rat catecholamine neuron systems using indirect immunofluorescent and biotin/avidin-HRP techniques. Recommended primary dilution is 1/4000 – 1/8000 with the biotin/avidin-HRP technique.  This antibody has been used successfully for IHC, ICC, FC, and IP. Western Blot:  This antibody does not cross react with dihydropterdine reductase, dopamine-B-hydroxylase, phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase, phenylalanine hydroxylase or tryptophan hydroxylase using Western Blot methods. Click here for more Western Blot protocol information. The TH antibody identifies dopaminergic axons and nerve ending during early mouse, rat and human development. This is because tyrosine hydroxylase is expressed very early in the developing dopamine neuron phenotype. Photo Description: High magnification (above) and low magnification (below) IHC image of the rat midbrain staining for tyrosine hydroxylase. The tissue was fixed with 4% formaldehyde in phosphate buffer, before being removed and prepared for vibratome sectioning. Floating sections were incubated at RT in 10% rabbit serum in PBS, before standard IHC procedure. Primary antibody was incubated at 1:5000 for 48 hours, rabbit anti-mouse secondary was subsequently added for 1 hour after washing with PBS. Light microscopy staining was achieved with standard biotin-streptavidin/HRP procedure and DAB chromogen.
