Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon tissue labeling Carcino Embryonic Antigen CEA with ab207718 at 1/40,000 dilution, followed by a ready to use Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP). Positive staining in human colon (PMID: 25042385) is observed. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is a ready to use Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP).
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval using ab93684 (Tris/EDTA buffer, pH 9.0). -
