Biotinyl tyramide is a reagent used for tyramide signal amplification (TSA) via catalyzed reporter deposition (CARD). In CARD, a reporter enzyme, such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated to a secondary antibody, is bound to the target of interest and catalyzes the covalent deposition of biotinyl tyramide to the sample. The sample is then probed by a detector, such as streptavidin-HRP, allowing detection via chromogenic or fluorescent methods. Biotinyl tyramide has been used in immunohistochemistry, ELISA, Western blot, and in situ hybridization applications.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
