3,3?-diaminobenzidine-tetrahydrochloride-dihydrate (DAB) was used as a chromogen, for detecting the antigen-antibody complex. It is one of the most potent marker being used in immunochemistry, mostly at the electron and light microscope levels. It is used as a histological stain for peroxidase activity. Reaction between 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine and peroxidase forms a visible insoluble product. This approach has been used to assay activity of glutamate decarboxylase in rat cerebellar sections and to detect horseradish peroxidase presence on cultured cell surfaces.

General Description

• 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride hydrate is an organic compound used as a peroxidase substrate

Application

• 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride hydrate is commonly used for immunoblotting and immunohistochemical staining techniques

• It has also been used for the histological stain to measure the peroxidase activity. The interaction between 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride hydrate and peroxidase leads to the formation of a visible insoluble product. Therefore, it has been applied to measure glutamate decarboxylase activity in rat cerebellar sections and to detect horseradish peroxidase presence on cultured cell surfaces

• It is used as a chromogen for detecting the antigen-antibody complex

• This compound is also used in several laboratory applications, including electron and light microscope, and FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization)
