Abstract/Summary

-
Immunohistochemical staining of tissue sections is a vital technique in pathological diagnostics and theranostics. Several kinds of detection systems are available-each of them with their advantages and disadvantages. Here we present the results of a study assessing a prototype immunohistochemical detection technology (PIDT) for visualization of antigens in tissue sections. Different tumor tissues (n = 11) were stained with selected antibodies (n = 30) and a subset of these under different fixation conditions. The staining properties were assessed according to six staining quality parameters (signal distribution, intensity, tissue and slide background, acutance, clarity of details, and subcellular morphological details), and the results were compared with those of a well-established detection system (EnVision FLEX). Overall, both detection methods revealed good to optimal results regarding the evaluated parameters even under unfavorable fixation conditions. However, with the prototype detection technology a quicker turnaround time was reached primarily due to shorter primary antibody incubation times. Moreover, PIDT-stained tissues showed higher signal intensity and a uniform signal distribution over the tissue slide, still, with well-preserved tissue morphology and without impairing the gradation of staining intensity of different cell types. In particular, the prototype detection technology performed better in poorly or delayed fixed tissue. In situations where rapid and profound results are in demand, and particularly in the context of a small laboratory setting, this prototype detection technology could be a useful addition to the established detection systems.
