摘要:
In certain embodiments the invention relates to methods and compositions for detecting a biological marker in a sample. In certain embodiments the biological markers are detected immunologically.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for evaluating tissue pre-treatment such as ischemic time, fixation time and alcohol time in an immunohistochemical assay by using one or more internal controls. Said internal controls may be biomarker specific or tissue specific. Also included are uses and kits comprising said internal controls.
摘要:
The present invention concerns a method and apparatus for automatic staining or other processing of a biological sample on a slide, perhaps robotically, by applying predetermined amounts of reagents in a predetermined sequence according to a processing protocol, the processing including pre-treatment steps, under the control of an adaptive processing control system. Further provided is a method of antigen retrieval, the method comprising contacting, within a heated processing tank of an automated staining apparatus, at least one biological sample with at least one composition for antigen retrieval comprising at least one chelating agent, at least one detergent and at least 50% by volume of at least one liquid that facilitates antigen retrieval.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the field of prostate cancer. Particularly the invention relates to villin as a novel prostate biomarker. The invention further relates to compositions comprising anti-villin antibodies and use of these compositions for an improved detection of prostate cancer in a subject.

摘要:
The invention relates to methods and compositions of detecting a biological marker in a sample. In certain embodiments, the methods and compositions comprise a first binding agent that specifically binds to a biological marker in a sample; a second binding agent linked to a first polymer, wherein the second binding agent specifically binds to the first binding agent; a third binding agent linked to a second polymer, wherein the third binding agent specifically binds to the second binding agent; and a detectable substance. In certain embodiments the biological markers are detected immunologically.
