Immunohistochemistry of I-A[d] positive cells. Frozen sections of mouse thymus were reacted with the anti-I-A[d] antibody. Cells expressing the MHC class II molecule I-A[d] can be identified by the intense brown labeling of their cell membranes. Magnification 20x.

Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
Immunohistochemistry: The AMS-32.1 clone reactive against mouse I-A[d] is recommended to test for immunohistochemical staining of acetone-fixed frozen sections. Tissues tested were mouse (BALB/c) spleen and thymus. The antibody stains the I-A[d] molecules found on the surface of cells expressing MHC-II in strains of mice expressing this haplotype. For optimal immunohistochemical staining, the biotinylated antibody should be titrated (1:10 to 1:50 dilution) and developed with Streptavidin-HRP (Cat. No. 550946) together with the DAB detection system (Cat. No. 550880). The clone AMS-32.1 is not recommended for formalin-fixed paraffin embedded sections.
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- This antibody has been developed for the immunohistochemistry application. However, a routine immunohistochemistry test is not performed on every lot. Researchers are encouraged to titrate the reagent for optimal performance.

Companion Products
The AMS-32.1 antibody specifically reacts with the I-A[d] MHC class II alloantigen. It crossreacts with cells from mice of the H-2[f], H-2[g7], H-2[i], and H-2[v] haplotypes. Reactivity with other haplotypes (e.g., k, p, q, r, s, u) has not been observed.
