description

RNAscope® FFPE Reagent Kits and Target Probes enable detection of virtually any target RNA in situ using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections on slides. RNAscope® assays are easy to perform, can be completed in less than 8-hours, and provide robust results.

RNAscope® FFPE Assay Quick GuidePrior to Assay: Prepare 1X Pretreat 2 (& heat to boiling in a beaker) & 1X Wash Buffer. Pre-warm Target Probe, Amp 1, Amp 2, Amp 3, and Amp 4 to 40oC and leave them @ RT. Bring HybEZ™ Oven and Humidity Control Tray to 40ºC.

1 De-Paraffinization1) Xylene 2 X 5 min2) 100% ethanol 2 X 3 min, then air dry 5 min3) Circle tissue with a hydrophobic barrier pen

2 Pre-Treatment 1 Pretreat 1 (~8 drops/slide) 10 min @ RT, then rinse 1 X in dH2O

3 Pre-Treatment 2 Boil slides in 1X Pretreat 2 15 min, then rinse 2 X in dH2O

4 Pre-Treatment 3 * Pretreat 3 (~4 drops/slide) 30 min @ 40 ºC, then rinse 2 X in dH2O

5 Target Hybridization

Probe (~4 drops/slide) 2 hrs @ 40 ºC, then 2 X 2 min in Wash Buffer

6 Amplification 1 Amp 1 (~4 drops/slide) 30 min @ 40 ºC, then 2 X 2 min in Wash Buffer

7 Amplification 2 Amp 2 (~4 drops/slide) 15 min @ 40 ºC, then 2 X 2 min in Wash Buffer

8 Amplification 3 Amp 3 (~4 drops/slide) 30 min @ 40 ºC, then 2 X 2 min in Wash Buffer

9 Amplification 4 Amp 4 (~4 drops/slide) 15 min @ 40 ºC, then 2 X 2 min in Wash Buffer

10 Detection Mix DAB-A, B @ 1:1, add 120 uL/slide, 10 min @ RT, then 1X in dH2O

11 Counterstain & Mounting

1) Gill’s Hematoxylin (diluted 1:4 in dH2O) 3 min2) ~5 dips in ammonia water, then ~5 dips in dH2O3) Dehydrate 1X 2 min in 50%, 70% and 100% ethanol4) Xylene 5 min5) Mount with xylene-based mounting media
