Histo-Clear II, like its predecessor Histo-Clear, is a safer histological clearing agent that leads to the production of high-quality tissue slides. Histo-Clear II is non-toxic and completely biodegradable, thus reducing disposal costs. Histo-Clear II has a greatly reduced citrus odor compared to other citrus-based histological clearing agents.

Note: Histo-Clear II is not compatible with all synthetic mounting media. For best results, use Omnimount (HS-110).

Histo-Clear II is also a long-standing favorite in dry mounting procedures and aqueous mounting. Please confirm compatibility with your mounting media before using Histo-Clear II within wet-mounting with synthetic media.

Protocol

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a vital tool, not just at your wet bench but also in clinical labs the world over. IHC is used extensively in hospitals and veterinary practices in grading and studying cancers, and the results may determine what treatment a patient gets – including the controversial Herceptin!

But it’s also pretty useful in research. Got a protein you’re trying to locate in a tissue? PCRs and Western Blots looking a bit hazy? Want some pretty pictures for your thesis? Immunohistochemistry may be just the technique you’re looking for.
