VECTASTAIN® ABC SYSTEMS
VECTASTAIN® ABC detection systems use macromolecular, preformed Avidin-Biotin Complexes (ABC complexes) to produce high sensitivity, low background, reproducible staining due to the form and number of active enzyme molecules comprising the ABC reagents.

VECTASTAIN® ABC Kits are modular - they can be configured for compatibility with a large number of different primary antibodies and target species and are available with a choice of detection enzymes.
VECTASTAIN® ABC Reagents are versatile - they can be used to detect any molecule that is biotinylated (antibodies, nucleic acids, neuronal tracers, lectins, and other ligands) in a wide variety of applications (IHC, ICC, ISH blot detection).
VECTASTAIN® ABC Kits are economical and are a staple product for immunodetection.
- Advanced avidin/biotin technology: The Elite® ABC complex is smaller, very uniform, and highly active, allowing more accessibility for binding to a biotinylated target
- HIghest sensitivity, low background: The VECTASTAIN® Elite® ABC system is the most sensitive avidin/biotin-based peroxidase system. The Elite® ABC series is approximately 5 times more sensitive than the original VECTASTAIN® ABC Kit with the same low background.
- Cost effective: HIgher sensitivity leads to lower cost per slide
- Available without (""Standard"" kit) or with biotinylated species-specific or universal secondary antibodies
- Available in ready-to-use formats: Prediluted, stabilized working solutions of Elite® ABC Kit reagents provide the same high sensitivity and low background as the traditional VECTASTAIN® Elite® ABC Kit reagents.
