UltraBrite™ Red IHC chromogen (AP Plus)

Traditional formulations for red alkaline phosphatase chromogens are unstable upon mixing. This can be problematic for use in automated slide strainers. UltraBrite™ red IHC chromogen (AP Plus) has been formulated for on-slide and on-board mixing for any autostainer. Both components are stable and can be loaded at the beginning of the staining run, for walk away convenience. UltraBrite™ red IHC chromogen (AP Plus) produces a red color, ranging from pink to brilliant dark red. It is insoluble in organic solvents; therefore sections can be dehydrated in alcohol, cleared in xylene (or a xylene-substitute), and permanently mounted. This chromogen substrate system may be used for both automation and manual use.
