Polymer Secondary Antibodies, Reagents, and Kits

Simplified Workflow, Sensitive Results.

 ImmPRESS™ Polymer Detection Empowers High-Performance Immunodetection Results 

Vector’s ImmPRESS Polymer Detection Reagents provide researchers with robust, sensitive, and streamlined solutions for high-performance immunohistochemistry (IHC) applications.   

The ImmPRESS technology leverages novel conjugation chemistries to create highly sensitive, enzyme-polymer antibody reagents. Our unique micro-polymers of highly active horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or alkaline phosphatase (AP) are combined with affinity-purified and pre-adsorbed secondary antibodies to deliver crisp, sensitive staining of target antibodies with minimal non-specific binding.

ImmPRESS Mouse-on-Mouse Detection

The Mouse-on-Mouse (M.O.M.) ImmPRESS HRP (Peroxidase) Polymer Kit is designed for species-on-species detection by using a proprietary Mouse Ig Blocking Reagent and an HRP polymer reagent to minimize endogenous mouse Ig staining, providing clear and specific antigen detection in mouse tissues, all with a simple, pre-optimized protocol. Use these kits to select for:  

  • Transgene and knock-out mice models
  • Genetically modified mice
  • Mouse xenograft tissue
  • Normal mouse tissue

ImmPRESS Kit Selection Guide

Choose the optimal ImmPRESS Kit for your application by comparing the type of kit with the target species. For the best results, select the kit with the same species of antibody as the tissue in which it will be used.
