Mono AEC/Plus

Mono AEC/Plus is a single, highly stable, working AEC chromogen/substrate liquid solution. When used in conjunction with immunoperoxidase staining, AEC produces a red colored end product at the positive sites, yielding strong contrast when combined with a blue hematoxylin counter stain. AEC has been well accepted amongst pathologists because of its relatively less toxic nature as compared to DAB. Specimens stained using Mono AEC/Plus cannot be dehydrated in ethanol and hence need to be mounted in an aqueous-based mounting medium such as CC Mount (DBS catalog # K002).
