The LAB VISION AUTOSTAINER^TM series - New for 2004!  These new Windows^TM-driven, automated immunohistochemical stainers are the next generation of open, flexible and economical IHC staining equipment from LAB VISION. The LAB VISION AUTOSTAINER instrument platform is the most successful in the world, with more than 2,400 units sold.  Why has it become so popular so fast? Because it is the only instrument that allows you to go from the bench to automation in as little as two days, using your own reagents! You need not switch to another detection system with which you are unfamiliar. Use the same reagents, protocols and incubation times that you have already painstakingly worked-up in your lab. Program your run in under ten minutes, selecting protocols that you have saved for routine runs, or customize for individual slides. The system is so flexible that you can run several detection systems at once, and add extra rinses for those difficult antibodies.

The following features are new for 2004:
- 2D data matrix bar codes match the reagent vials to the correct slides
- available in 36, 48, and 72 (can be expanded to 84) slide staining modules
- operate 4 staining modules with one computer
- the PT Module, designed to dewax and unmask (pretreat) your slides in the Autostainer slide racks

NEOMARKERS antibodies - Arguably the fastest growing antibody manufacturer in the world, NeoMarkers has now licensed and produced more than 1700 antibodies, antigens and recombinant proteins. These antibodies are useful in immunoprecipitation, Western blots, immunohistology, flow, super shifts, ELISA's and many other referenced applications. Check our extensive data sheet collection on-line.

The following is new for 2004:
- Lab Vision and NeoMarkers have joined forces to meet the stringent regulatory demands necessary for marketing products for in vitro diagnostic use.  This means that more than 300 products are registered with the EC and FDA.
- Lab Vision has continued to invest in antibody technologies by adding more Rabbit Monoclonal antibodies (RabMAb’s) to the IVD product line.  These RabMAb’s show higher binding affinity and thus better staining results.

UltraVision^TM - Immunohistochemical detection systems have advanced rapidly in the last 2 decades. UltraVision offers several levels of technology to meet individual laboratory needs.  The standard UltraVision kit functions via biotin-streptavidin enzyme-labeled detection technology. After incubation with your antibody, use short, 10-minute incubation times to detect, providing quick, sensitive results. The UltraVision system is ideal for manual or automated staining procedures, and the quality is unsurpassed because we manufacture in smaller, highly tested batches. This means that you receive a freshly made reagent every time you order.

UltraVision Plus uses the same great technology and quality components as UltraVision, but is designed for RAPID staining, requiring only 5-minute incubation times for each component.

UltraVision LP represents the latest technology in detection systems, utilizing a labeled polymer component system.  The labeled polymer essentially combines the secondary and tertiary steps of the biotin-streptavidin systems into one step.  The system is biotin-free and has an unsurpassed level of sensitivity.  Use this system to get the highest signal-to-noise ratio available.

UltraVision Mouse-on-Mouse is a research detection system for visualizing mouse-hosted primary antibodies on mouse tissues. Based on Lab Vision's UltraVision detection system, a proprietary blocking step is added to the procedure to reduce immunological cross-reactivity innate to the system. The additional blocking step considerably eliminates non-target detection system binding, thus decreasing unwanted background staining. The UltraVision Mouse-on-Mouse eliminates non-target detection system binding for a cleaner, more useful IHC stain.
