Category: Chromatography Protocols: Immobilized Metal Ion Affinity Chromatography Protocols

Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) exploits a molecule’s affinity for chelated metal ions.  The amino acid histidine present in many proteins forms complexes with transition metal ions such as Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+ and Fe3+.  Chelating Sepharose™ Fast Flow with a suitable immobilized metal ion will therefore selectively retain proteins with exposed histidine. - [Read Chelating Sepharose Fast Flow Protocol]

Category: Immunohistochemistry Protocols

Protocol for immunohistochemistry on fixed, paraffin-embedded sections. This method is widely used and applies to the detection of the overwhelming majority of antigens, with few exceptions for which enzymatic retrieval is required. The method uses a strong chelating agent, EDTA. Includes: Double indirect AP; AP Developing solution; Indirect immunohistochemistry with avidin-biotin and HRP; HRP Developing solution. - [Read Immunohistochemistry on Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded Sections Protocol]
