RE: hif-alpha

Yes, I am following the procedure from the literature describing HIF1-alpha
staining in brain Tissue. The antibody we are using is from Novus (catalog
# 100-123). Staining requires HEIR, which we perform in a microwave oven
(45 minutes 0.01M, pH6.0 citric acid buffer). Antibody is incubated
overnight 4C (1:800). The primary antibody is detected via Tyramide
amplification (Dako CSA kit). I know that these conditions are excessive,
and I have had some serious reservations about the validity of the staining
in other tissues.
Just last week I came across a reference (I have in PDF format) that
describes a procedure that is significantly less harsh. I have not tried it
as of yet. If you like I could e-mail the reference and you could try that
procedure
Regards
Luis
