General notes
This antigen retrieval solution incorporates “ASSURE™, which is a color-coded pH indicator technology. The end-user is assured, by visual inspection, that the solution is at the correct dilution and pH. This product is specially formulated for superior pH stability at high temperatures, and will help prevent the possibility of losing pH sensitive antigens. When heating, the solution should turn gray. If the color of the solution turns yellow or red, it is an indication that the pH of the solution is incorrect and that staining may be hindered.

IHC reagent notes
This one-step high pH solution (9.5) allows the end-user to simultaneously deparaffinize and to heat-pretreat formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues. Xylenes and alcohols are not needed for deparaffinization, thus saving valuable technician time and reduce costs for reagents and hazardous waste. Alternatively, tissues can be deparaffinized in xylene and hydrated to water, and then placed into the solution in the pressure cooker and/or other heating methods. This product also has blocking reagents to reduced non-specific background staining.
