This product should be interpreted by a qualified pathologist in conjunction with histological examination, relevant clinical information, and proper controls. This antibody is intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use. en Oct-4 (MRQ-10) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (this antibody) may be used as the primary antibody for immunohistochemical staining of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections. In general, immunohistochemical staining allows the visualization of antigens via the sequential application of a specific antibody (primary antibody) to the antigen, a secondary antibody (link antibody) to the primary antibody, an enzyme complex and a chromogenic substrate with interposed washing steps. The enzymatic activation of the chromogen results in a visible reaction product at the antigen site. The specimen may then be counterstained and a coverslip applied. Results are interpreted using a light microscope and aid in the differential diagnosis of pathophysiological processes, which may or may not be associated with a particular antigen.This antibody is optimally diluted to be compatible with VENTANA detection kits and BenchMark IHC/ISH instruments. Refer to the Tables in the Instructions for Use section for recommended staining protocols. Each step in the staining protocol includes incubation for a precise time at a specifi c temperature. At the end of each incubation step, the sections are rinsed by the BenchMark IHC/ISH instruments to stop the reaction and remove unbound material that would hinder the desired reaction in subsequent steps. To minimize evaporation of the aqueous reagents from the specimen-containing slide, a coverslip solution is applied in the slide stainer.
