Amylo-Glo Amyloid Plaque Stain Reagent with EtBr Counter Stain
Amylo-Glo Ready to Dilute Staining reagent is designed to stain amyloid plaques in tissue sections.
Combined Amylo-Glo labeling of amyloid plaques (blue)with ethidium bromide Nissl (cell body) counterstain (red) in the dentate gyrus region of the hippocampus of the AD/Tg mouse.UV light excitation.
The Biosensis AG-400-AG kit utilizes an ethidium bromide counter stain for a quick and effective way to visualize cell nuclei and cell bodies of cells while under UV illumination allowing the assessment of amyloid plaques and cell/tissue positioning as well in one step.
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).
Amyloid plaque
Species Independent
Amyloid plaques both intraneuronal and vascular for A-G, Etbr, nuclei and cell bodies both DNA and RNA label.
All Mammals, Human, Mouse, Rat
ICC, IHC
Staining of amyloid plaques in human and animal tissues, see included protocol. EtBr counter stain stains nuclei and cell bodies for easy identification and spatial orientation.
Fluorescence
Purified
Liquid, ready to dilute
Thin layer chromatography using alumina plates and a solvent system of ethanol and water (3:1) revealed the presence of two fluorescent isomers. No amount of starting material was detected.
