2-step plus is a two-step immunohistochemical broad spectrum detection reagent. It polymerizes monovalent Fab fragments of secondary antibody and enzyme, which replaces the secondary antibody and tertiary antibody in traditional method, can directly amplify the binding signal of antibody-antigen. This method not only retains the specific binding ability of antibody with antigen, but also can effectively avoid space steric hindrance caused by excessive polymer molecules. Compared with the traditional SP three-step method, this kit has the characteristics of simple, rapid, high-sensitivity. This system abandons the using of biotin, so it can avoid background staining by endogenous biotin. It can be used in IHC, in which the primary antibody is monoclonal or polyclonal antibody derived from mouse or rabbit. Diluent for DAB concentrated solution has been provided in this kit to avoid the influence of the different water acidity and alkalinity on the DAB Chromogenic Agent.
