Biotinyl tyramide is a reagent used for tyramide signal amplification (TSA) via catalyzed reporter deposition (CARD). In CARD, a reporter enzyme, such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated to a secondary antibody, is bound to the target of interest and catalyzes the covalent deposition of biotinyl tyramide to the sample. The sample is then probed by a detector, such as streptavidin-HRP, allowing detection via chromogenic or fluorescent methods. Biotinyl tyramide has been used in immunohistochemistry, ELISA, Western blot, and in situ hybridization applications.
Store lyophilized at -20ºC, keep desiccated. In lyophilized form, the chemical is stable for 36 months. In solution, store at -20ºC and use within 3 months to prevent loss of potency. Aliquot to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
