| Application: | 3,3′-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride hydrate has been used in immunohistological staining procedure and in situ hybridization. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | DAB (3,3′-Diaminobenzidine) is utilized in many applications for the visualization of peroxidase activity. In the peroxidase reaction, DAB serves as a hydrogen donor in the presence of peroxide. The oxidized DAB forms an insoluble brown end-product for use in immunohistological and immunoblotting staining procedures. |
