The RNAscope® 2.5 HD Duplex Assay is based on ACD’s patented signal amplification and background suppression technology. The assay uses a novel and proprietary method of in situ hybridization (ISH) to visualize single RNA molecules per cell in FFPE samples mounted on slides. RNAscope® Assays do not require the RNA-free environment used for traditional ISH. RNAscope® probes in Channel 1 and Channel 2 are compatible with this assay which utilizes HRP-based Green and AP-based Fast Red chromogens to result in a detectable green and red signal respectively. The RNAscope® 2.5 HD Duplex Assay can be used for simultaneous visualization of two RNA targets while maintaining single cell resolution. The applications of this assay include study of gene co-regulation, profile gene expression in a specific cell type (identified using a cell specific marker) and map coexpression of two targets within the same cellular context based on reliable chromogenic detection of the two transcripts.
Sample Images
RNAscope® 2.5 HD Duplex Reagent Kit gives reliable results which are ideal for archiving due to the permanent staining visible under any standard bright field microscope. The RNAscope® 2.5 HD Duplex Reagent Kits are designed to provide more intense staining when low copy target gene expression is anticipated (1–20 copies per cell). The RNAscope® 2.5 HD Duplex reagent kits are compatible with the same RNAscope® probes used previously with RNAscope®2.0 2-plex assays.
For customers using RNAscope® 2.5 HD Duplex Manual Assay for the first time, ACD's Intro Packs include species-specific control slides, control probes, the Reagent Kit, the ImmEdge hydrophobic barrier pen and the must-have accessory VectaMount™ Mounting Medium from Vecta Labs. Be sure to order your target C1 and C2 probes separately.
