Summary: 3, 3´ Diaminobenzidine (DAB) is a commonly used chromogen for histological staining. In the presence of peroxidase enzyme, DAB produces a brown precipitate that is insoluble in alcohol and xylene. Peroxidase catalyzes hydrogen peroxide oxidation of substrate DAB. This SOP provides instructions to prepare four different formulations of DAB. DAB for Immunohistochemical staining (IHC), DAB for Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) Staining, Nickel Enchanced DAB for Biocytin staining, and DAB for Biocytin staining.Note: Research reported in this publication was supported by the National Institute Of Mental Health of the National Institutes of Health under Award Number U19MH114830.
