Product description

Tyramide signal amplification (TSA) has proven to be a particularly versatile and powerful enzyme amplification technique with improved assay sensitivity. TSA is based on the ability of HRP, in the presence of low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, to convert labeled tyramine-containing substrate into an oxidized, highly reactive free radical that can covalently bind to tyrosine residues at or near the HRP. The signal amplification conferred by the turnover of multiple tyramide substrates per peroxidase label translates ultrasensitive detection of low-abundance targets and the use of smaller amounts of antibodies and hybridization probes. In immunohistochemical applications, sensitivity enhancements derived from TSA method allow primary antibody dilutions to be increased to reduce nonspecific background signals, and can overcome weak immunolabeling caused by suboptimal fixation procedures or low levels of target expression. XFD 532 tyramide contains the Alexa Fluor® 532 fluorophore that can be readily detected with the Alexa Fluor® 532/ATTO 532 filter set (Alexa Fluor® is the trademark of ThermoFisher). XFD 532 tyramide has intense yellow-orange fluorescence color.

Protocol Summary

Fix/permeabilize/block cells or tissue
Add primary antibody in blocking buffer
Add HRP-conjugated secondary antibody
Prepare tyramide working solution and apply in cells or tissue for 5-10 minutes at room temperature

PREPARATION OF STOCK SOLUTIONS

Unless otherwise noted, all unused stock solutions should be divided into single-use aliquots and stored at -20 °C after preparation. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

1. XFD 532 tyramide stock solution (100X)

Add 100 µL of DMSO into the vial of XFD 532 tyramide conjugate to make 100X tyramide stock solution.
Note Make single use aliquots, and store unused 100X stock solution at 2-8 ^oC in dark place.

2. H₂O₂ stock solution

Add 10 µL of 3% hydrogen peroxide (Not provided) to 90 µL of ddH₂O.
Note Prepare the 100X H₂O₂ solution fresh on the day of use.

PREPARATION OF WORKING SOLUTION

1. XFD 532 tyramide working solution (1X)

Every 1 mL of Reaction Buffer requires 10 µL of tyramide stock solution and 10 µL of H₂O₂ stock solution.
Note The tyramide provided is enough for 100 tests based on 100 µL of tyramide working solution needed per coverslip or per well in a 96-well microplate.
Note The tyramide working solution must be used within 2 hours after preparation and avoid direct exposure to light.

2. Secondary antibody-HRP working solution

Make appropriate concentration of secondary antibody-HRP working solution as per the manufacturer's recommendations.

SAMPLE EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOL

This protocol is applicable for both cells and tissues staining.

Cell fixation and permeabilization

Fix the cells or tissue with 3.7% formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde, in PBS at room temperature for 20 minutes.
Rinse the cells or tissue with PBS twice.
Permeabilize the cells with 0.1% Triton X-100 solution for 1-5 minutes at room temperature.
Rinse the cells or tissue with PBS twice.

Tissue fixation, deparaffinization and rehydration

Deparaffinize and dehydrate the tissue according to the standard IHC protocols. Perform antigen retrieval with preferred specific solution/protocol as needed.

Peroxidase labeling

Optional: Quench endogenous peroxidase activity by incubating cell or tissue sample in peroxidase quenching solution (such as 3% hydrogen peroxide) for 10 minutes. Rinse with PBS twice at room temperature.
Optional: If using HRP-conjugated streptavidin, it is advisable to block endogenous biotins by biotin blocking buffer.
Block with preferred blocking solution (such as PBS with 1% BSA) for 30 minutes at 4 °C.
Remove blocking solution and add primary antibody diluted in recommended antibody diluent for 60 minutes at room temperature or overnight at 4 °C.
Wash with PBS three times for 5 minutes each.
Apply 100 µL of secondary antibody-HRP working solution to each sample and incubate for 60 minutes at room temperature.
Note Incubation time and concentration can be varied depending on the signal intensity.
Wash with PBS three times for 5 minutes each.

Tyramide labeling

Prepare and apply 100 µL of tyramide working solution to each sample and incubate for 5-10 minutes at room temperature.
Note If you observe non-specific signal, you can shorten the incubation time with tyramide. You should optimize the incubation period using positive and negative control samples at various incubation time points. Or you can use lower concentration of tyramide in the working solution.
Rinse with PBS three times.

Counterstain and fluorescence imaging

Counterstain the cell or tissue samples as needed. AAT provides a series of nucleus counterstain reagents as listed in Table 1. Follow the instruction provided with the reagents.
Mount the coverslip using a mounting medium with anti-fading properties.
Use the appropriate filter set to visualize the signal from the tyramide labeling.
