Multiple Antigen Labeling with the ImmPRESS™ Polymer Detection System

Last updated: 02nd February, 2022

Products are for professional/laboratory use only.

The simplest system for use in a double labeling application is the ImmPRESS™ Polymer Detection System. ImmPRESS™ Polymer Reagents are available with either micropolymers of peroxidase (HRP) or alkaline phosphatase

(AP) detection enzymes attached to a variety of affinity-purified secondary antibodies. These one-step, non-biotin reagents are very sensitive with low non-specific background.

In addition, pairing ImmPRESS™ Polymer Reagents with Vector’s ImmPACT™ line of substrates produces sensitivities at least 2-4 times greater than with conventional substrates. Because the ImmPRESS™ Polymer System is a single step, the time for any multiple labeling experiment is shortened and the protocol simplified.


Vector ImmPRESS™ kits offer:

  • One step detection after primary antibody.
  • Avoids issues with endogenous biotin detection (non avidin/biotin detection system)
  • Choice of enzyme system (peroxidase or alkaline phosphatase)
  • Choice of species specific kit (such as anti-mouse, anti-rabbit, anti-goat IgG and universal)
  • Straightforward single or multiple antigen detection on same tissue section
  • Can be applied using either manual or automated staining applications
  • Presented as pre-diluted, ready-to-use reagents i.e. no need to dilute a concentrated reagent
