Polymer Rene Detection
Catalog No: DS9800
Intended Use
This detection system is for in vitro diagnostic use.
Bond Polymer Rene Detection is a biotin-free, polymeric horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-linker antibody conjugate system for the
detection of tissue-bound mouse and rabbit IgG and some mouse IgM primary antibodies. It is intended for staining sections of formalin-
xed, parafn-embedded tissue on the Bond
TM
automated system.
The clinical interpretation of any staining or its absence should be complemented by morphological studies and proper controls.
They should be evaluated within the context of the patient’s clinical history and other diagnostic tests by a qualied pathologist.
The Bond Polymer Rene Detection Kit must be used with laboratory best practice in the use of tissue controls. For assurance,
laboratories should stain each patient sample in conjunction with positive, negative, and other tissue specic controls as needed.
Summary and Explanation
Immunohistochemical techniques can be used to demonstrate the presence of antigens in tissue and cells (see “Using Bond Reagents”
in your Bond user documentation).
Bond Polymer Rene Detection utilizes a novel controlled polymerization technology to prepare polymeric HRP-linker antibody
conjugates. The detection system avoids the use of streptavidin and biotin, and therefore eliminates non-specic staining as a result of
endogenous biotin.
Bond Polymer Rene Detection works as follows:
• The specimen is incubated with hydrogen peroxide to quench endogenous peroxidase activity.
• A user-supplied specic primary antibody is applied.
• Post Primary IgG linker reagent localizes mouse antibodies.
• Poly-HRP IgG reagent localizes rabbit antibodies.
• The substrate chromogen, 3,3’-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride hydrate (DAB), visualizes the complex via a brown precipitate.
• Hematoxylin (blue) counterstaining allows the visualization of cell nuclei.
Using Bond Polymer Rene Detection in combination with the Bond automated system reduces the possibility of human error and
inherent variability resulting from individual reagent dilution, manual pipetting and reagent application.
Reagents Provided

Dilution and Mixing
Bond Polymer Rene Detection is optimized for use on the Bond system. Reconstitution, mixing, dilution, or titration of these reagents is
not required.
Materials Required But Not Provided
Refer to “Using Bond Reagents” in your Bond user documentation for a complete list of materials required for specimen treatment and
immunohistochemical staining using the Bond system.
Storage and Stability
Store at 2–8 °C. Do not freeze. Do not use after the expiration date indicated on the tray handle label. Return to 2–8 °C immediately after
use.
There are no obvious signs to indicate instability of this product, therefore positive and negative controls should be run simultaneously
with unknown specimens (refer to “Quality Control” in the “Using Bond Reagents” section of your Bond user documentation).
If unexpected staining is observed that cannot be explained by variations in laboratory procedures, and a problem with the detection
system is suspected, contact your local distributor or the regional ofce of Leica Biosystems immediately.
Storage conditions other than those specied above must be veried by the user
