hydrophobic barrier pen

Super PAP Pens: Liquid Blocker

General Use: Immunohistochemistry
Surfaces: Glass

ready-to-use hydrophobic barrier pens

PAP Pens are used for immunohistochemical applications. The hydrophobic properties allow the user to draw barriers on the slide, in any pattern, to confine the flow of reagents to a defined area. A minimum of valuable antiserum will be used. Visible marking as light green/blue and can be removed with Xylene.

For immunohistochemistry, PAP Pen should be applied after deparaffinization.

Directions:
  1. Deparaffinize tissue sections and hydrate to water.
  2. Wipe away excess liquid around the section on the glass slide with tissue paper.
  3. Encircle the tissue section or draw lines on both sides of the section and let dry (10-15 seconds). Soak slides in PBS.

lab marker immedge

ImmEdge™ Pen

General Use: Immunohistochemistry, In situ Hybridization
Writing Surface: Glass

a hydrophobic barrier pen

The ImmEdge™ Pen, a hydrophobic barrier pen for immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, is designed for use with frozen or paraffin-embedded tissue sections mounted on glass slides. The ImmEdge™ Pen provides a heat-stable, water-repellent barrier that keeps staining reagents localized on the tissue sections, prevents mixing of reagents when differentially staining two sections on the same slide, and allows use of less reagents per section.

The lightly colored barrier is insoluble in alcohol and acetone, but is completely removed by all commonly used xylene and "xylene substitute" clearing agents. The ImmEdge™ Pen contains no ozone-depleting solvents and is compatible with enzyme or fluorescent-based detection systems.
