Application Notes
Specimen Preparation:

Paraffin sections: The antibody can be used on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections. Ensure tissue undergoes appropriate fixation for best results. Pre-treatment of tissues with heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) is recommended using ImmunoDNA Retriever with Citrate, ImmunoDNA Retriever with EDTA or ImmunoDNA Digestor. Tissue should remain hydrated via use of Immuno/DNA Washer solutions. Frozen sections and cell preparations: The antibody can be used on acetone-fixed frozen sections and acetone-fixed cell preparations.

Frozen sections and cell preparations: The antibodycan be used on acetone-fixed frozen sections and acetone-fixed cell preparations.

Precautions
1. This product contains <0.1% sodium azide (NaN3) as a preservative. Ensure proper handling procedures are used with this reagent.
2. Always wear personal protective equipment such as a laboratory coat, goggles, and gloves when handling reagents.
3. Dispose of unused solution with copious amounts of water.
4. Do not ingest reagent. If reagent is ingested,seek medical advice immediately.
5. Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, flush with large quantities of water.
6. Follow safety precautions of the heating device used for epitope retrieval (TintoRetriever Pressure Cooker or similar).
7. For additional safety information refer to Safety Data Sheet for this product.
8. For complete recommendations for handling biological specimens, please refer to the CDC document,"Guidelines for Safe Work Practices in Human and AMDL".
Mounting Protocols
For detailed instructions using biodegradable permanent mounting media such as XyGreen PermaMounter or organic solvent based resin such as PermaMounter.
Product Limitations
Due to inherent variability present in immunohistochemical procedures (including fixation time of tissues, dilution factor of antibody, retrieval method utilized, and incubation time), optimal performance should be established through the use of positive and negative controls.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2-8 degree C.

Product Notes

The HHV-8 (Catalog #AAA13561) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The HHV-8 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's HHV-8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Sarcoma & Soft Tissue, Lymphoma, Infectious Diseases. Specimen Preparation: Paraffin sections: The antibody can be used on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections. Ensure tissue undergoes appropriate fixation for best results. Pre-treatment of tissues with heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) is recommended using ImmunoDNA Retriever with Citrate, ImmunoDNA Retriever with EDTA or ImmunoDNA Digestor. Tissue should remain hydrated via use of Immuno/DNA Washer solutions. Frozen sections and cell preparations: The antibody can be used on acetone-fixed frozen sections and acetone-fixed cell preparations. Frozen sections and cell preparations: The antibodycan be used on acetone-fixed frozen sections and acetone-fixed cell preparations. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HHV-8 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HHV-8, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
