Vector Laboratories – VECTASHIELD® Antifade Mounting Media & TrueVIEW® Autofluorescence Quenching Kits

If you love the Vector Laboratories’  VECTASHIELD Antifade Mounting Media - The MOST widely referenced antifade mounting media, then you may also love the TrueVIEW Autofluorescence Quenching Kits.

These kits provide a novel way to remove unwanted fluorescence in tissue sections due to aldehyde fixation,
red blood cells, and structural elements such as collagen and elastin.

TrueVIEW Quenching reagent is a unique approach to diminish unwanted autofluorescence from non-lipofuscin sources, that retains the specific fluorescent antigen staining. The quenching action of the kit reagents therefore, provides the investigator with a clear, unambiguous, “true view” visualization of the intended target.

You may also like the VectaPlex^™ Antibody Removal Kit. This ready-to-use kit is designed to remove antibodies and other non-covalently bound detection reagents from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections in immunofluorescence or tyramide signal amplification staining workflows.
