Application Notes: Positive Control: Kidney: Cells of proximal tubuli should show a moderate to strong ACE2 immunostaining with accentuation of the staining at the apical membrane. Negative Control: Kidney: Cells of distal tubuli and glomeruli should not show ACE2 immunostaining. Cellular Localization: Cytoplasmic Protocol Recommendations: Manual Protocol: Freshly cut sections should be used (less than 10 days between cutting and staining). Heat-induced antigen retrieval for 5 minutes in an autoclave at 121C in pH 7,8 Target Retrieval Solution buffer. Apply the antibody at a dilution of 1:150 at 37C for 60 minutes. Visualization of bound antibody by the EnVision Kit (Dako, Agilent) according to the manufacturers directions
