Product Details
The Immunology Discovery Panel includes all the critical workflow reagents to enable phenotyping of T cells, B cells and macrophages, with 3 open channels for user-selected targets, using 6-plex fluorescent immunohistochemistry:
- Antibodies to CD4, CD8 & CD68
- 1X Antibody Diluent/Block
- 6 reactive fluorophores (Opal 520, Opal 540, Opal 570, Opal 620, Opal 650, and Opal 690)
- DMSO
- 10X Spectral DAPI
- 1X Plus Manual Amplification Diluent
- Secondary Antibody 1X Opal Anti-Ms + Rb HRP
- AR6 Buffer
- AR9 Buffer
To develop an IHC custom panel for investigation of the immune response, the user pairs this kit with antibodies to 3 additional targets of interest. This kit was configured and validated for multispectral imaging on the Mantra and PhenoImager HT Systems. Contains enough reagents for 6-plex immunostain of up to 50 slides.
- Optimized panel for assessment of immune cells in intact FFPE tumor tissue
- Shortest path to results
- Part of the PhenoImager® workflow for immunophenotyping of solid tumors
- Flexibility for detection of your targets of interest in multiplex panels
- Faster time-to-results

Workflow
Bake and Deparaffinize Slides
- Bake at 60 C for one hour
- Xylene wash (3x ten minutes)
- Rehydrate with EtOH gradient into di H2O
Slide Fixation
- 10% NBF for 20 minutes
- Di H2O wash
Antigen Retrieval
- AR6 or AR9 MWT
- Cool to RT for at least 15 minutes
Blocking
- Di H2O rinse, TBST rinse
- PAP pen barrier
- Incubate tissue for 10 minutes in blocking solution at RT
Primary Antibody
- Remove blocker and add primary antibody
- Rinse with TBST, then wash 3 times for two minutes each in TBST
Secondary Antibody
- Incubation 10 minutes at RT
- Rinse with TBST and wash 3 times for 2 minutes each
Opal Reagent
- Opal fluorophore incubation for ten minutes at RT
- Rinse with TBST and wash 3 times for 2 minutes each
MWT
- Rinse slides with AR6 or AR9
- Place slides in microwave-safe jar, perform MWT
- Cool to RT for at least 15 minutes
Spectral DAPI
- Use AR6 for MWT prior to DAPI for removal of any unbound fluor
- Rinse slides in di H2O and then TBST
- Incubate DAPI for 5 minutes at RT
- Wash with di H2O and TBST two minutes each
Mount
- Apply monunting medium for fluorescene microscopy for coverslip
