Amylo-Glo Ready to Dilute Staining reagent is designed to stain amyloid plaques in tissue sections.

This triple exposure allows for the simultaneous localization of Amylo-Glo® positive amyloid plaques (blue), GFAP positive hypertrophied astrocytes (green) and activated microglia (red) in the hippocampus of the AD/Tg mouse.Combined UV, blue and green light illumination.

Staining of amyloid plaques (blue) in J20 line heterozygote adult mouse brain. Image represents 3-D reconstruction from confocal z-stack. Red: astrocytes stained for GFAP. Green: Aggregates of cofilin rods. Method: brain was fixed by perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde cut at 30 um thickness on freezing microtome, and stained as free floating sections.

Product Description

Amylo-Glo Ready to Dilute Staining reagent is designed to stain amyloid plaques in tissue sections. This novel marker has several advantages over other conventional markers such as Thioflavin S and Congo Red because of its unique chemical and spectral properties. (L. Schmued et al. (2012) J.Neuroscience Methods 209:120- 126). Using Amylo-Glo results in a very bright blue UV excitable stain under physiological conditions that will not bleed through when illuminated with other filters. Its brightness makes it ideal for low magnification quantification studies, while its unique excitation/emission profile and mild staining conditions makes it ideal for combination for multiple immunofluorescent labeling studies. Amylo-Glo RTD is compatible with fresh, frozen, and formalin-fixed immunohistochemistry or cytochemistry, and it is particularly good for confocal and multiple labeling because of its high fluorescent intensity and high resistance to photo-bleaching. Moreover because Amylo-Glo fluoresces in the UV channel, double and triple labeling experiments can be performed very easily (see protocol).
