This disclosure relates to compositions that enhance the deposition of detectable moieties on tissue samples, methods utilizing these compositions and kits including these compositions. The compositions include a deposition enhancer having a formula where R1, R2, R3, and R4 are independently selected from aliphatic, aryl, halogen, a heteroatom-containing moiety, and hydrogen; R1 and/or R3 can be bound to R2 to form a fused, aromatic ring system; R5 is selected from a heteroatom-containing moiety; A is selected from, a carbon atom, a heteroatom, other than sulfur, and any combination thereof; n is 1-5, an enzyme, a specific binding moiety and a detectable moiety.

Embodiments of hapten conjugates including a hapten, an optional linker, and a peroxidase-activatable aryl moiety are disclosed. In some embodiments, the peroxidase-activatable aryl moiety is tyramine or a tyramine derivative. Embodiments of methods for making and using the hapten conjugates also are disclosed. In particular embodiments, the hapten conjugates are used in a signal amplification assay. In certain embodiments, the hapten is an oxazole, a pyrazole, a thiazole, a benzofurazan, a triterpene, a urea, a thiourea other than a rhodamine thiourea, a nitroaryl other than dinitrophenyl or trinitrophenyl, a rotenoid, a cyclolignan, a heterobiaryl, an azoaryl, a benzodiazepine, or 7-diethylamino-3-carboxycoumarin. The hapten is coupled to the peroxidase-activatable aryl moiety directly or indirectly via a linker. In certain embodiments, the hapten conjugates are used in multiplexed assays.

Disclosed herein are antibody-nanoparticle conjugates that include two or more nanoparticles (such as gold, palladium, platinum, silver, copper, nickel, cobalt, iridium, or an alloy of two or more thereof) directly linked to an antibody or fragment thereof through a metal-thiol bond. Methods of making the antibody-nanoparticle conjugates disclosed herein include reacting an arylphosphine-nanoparticle composite with a reduced antibody to produce an antibody-nanoparticle conjugate. Also disclosed herein are methods for detecting a target molecule in a sample that include using an antibody-nanoparticle conjugate (such as the antibody-nanoparticle conjugates described herein) and kits for detecting target molecules utilizing the methods disclosed herein.

摘要:
Embodiments of a system, method, and kit for visualizing a nucleus are disclosed. A tissue sample is pretreated with a protease to permeabilize the nucleus, and then incubated with a nanoparticle/DNA-binding moiety conjugate. The DNA-binding moiety includes at least one DNA-binding molecule. The conjugate binds to DNA within the nucleus, and the nanoparticle is visualized, thereby visualizing the nucleus. Computer and image analysis techniques are used to evaluate nuclear features such as chromosomal distribution, ploidy, shape, size, texture features, and/or contextual features. The method may be used in combination with other multiplexed tests on the tissue sample, including fluorescence in situ hybridization. Kits for performing the method include a protease enzyme composition, a nanoparticle/DNA-binding moiety conjugate, and a reaction buffer.
