The ImmunoStar VIAAT antiserum was quality control tested using standard immunohistochemical methods in rat brain and spinal cord using biotin/avidin-HRP techniques.Specificity of the antiserum was demonstrated by soluble pre-adsorption and Western blot. Tissue staining is completely eliminated by pretreatment of the diluted antibody with an excess of rat VIAAT peptide residues 511-525. Photo Description: Low magnification IHC image of the rat globus pallidus staining for VIATT (above). The tissue was fixed with 4% formaldehyde in 0.1 M phosphate buffer, before being removed and prepared for vibratome sectioning. Floating sections were incubated at RT in 10% goat serum in PBS, before standard IHC procedure. Primary antibody was incubated at 1:5000 for 48 hours, goat anti-rabbit 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.Western blot analysis of immunoprecipitated rat brain homogenates demonstrates a dense immunoreactive band of approximately 57 kD and a minor band of approximately 36 kD.
