FluxMPS™ HRPQuench-TBS
HRPQuench-TBS is an MPS-grade, dual-stage filtered Tris-buffered saline formulation engineered to completely inactivate horseradish peroxidase (HRP) between sequential staining cycles in multiplex immunolabeling protocols. Built on a defined 50 mM Tris / 150 mM NaCl base at pH 7.4, it delivers precise enzyme quenching without disturbing tissue morphology or downstream antibody-antigen interactions, supporting cleaner multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) and immunofluorescence (mIF) results in microfluidic and chip-based imaging workflows.
- Dual-stage filtered (0.1 µm membrane once and 0.04 µm membrane once) for an ultrapure, ultra-clean Tris-buffered saline base
- Complete HRP inactivation between staining rounds prevents signal carryover in multi-round IHC/IF protocols
- Tris-buffered saline system at pH 7.4, optimized for compatibility with downstream immunoreagents (pH 7.4–7.6)
- Formulated with catalase for enzyme inactivation, trehalose for stabilization, and ProClin 300 as preservative

Engineered where standard quenching buffers fail
Conventional 0.22 µm-filtered quenching buffers leave subvisible particulates and inconsistent HRP inactivation that can carry over between staining rounds, drift pH, and elevate background in multiplex assays. HRPQuench-TBS is built to remove those failure points at the formulation level.
Microchannel-Safe Purity
Filtered 0.1 µm membrane once and 0.04 µm membrane once for an ultrapure base compatible with fine-bore microfluidic and imaging channels.
Precise, Stable pH
Defined 50 mM Tris / 150 mM NaCl formulation held at pH 7.4, matched to downstream immunoreagent compatibility of pH 7.4–7.6.
Ultrapure-Grade Water
Manufactured using Ultrapure Type 1 water (18.2 MΩ·cm) consistent with USP <85> water-quality practice.
Low Background for Imaging & Assays
Complete HRP inactivation between cycles reduces non-specific background in chromogenic and fluorescent multiplex assays.
Defined, Traceable Composition
Lot-released catalase, trehalose, and ProClin 300 in a controlled Tris-buffered saline matrix, documented component by component.
Customization on Demand
Alternate concentrations, additional chemicals/compounds/proteins/supplements, different pH, and other modifications available on request.
Dual-stage filtration system
HRPQuench-TBS is manufactured Non-Sterile and Ultrapure, passed through a 0.1 µm membrane once and a 0.04 µm membrane once to remove large particulates and finer bioburden ahead of formulation, delivering a clean Tris-buffered saline base for multiplex immunolabeling workflows.
-
1
0.1 µm Pre-Filtration I
Removes large particulates and aggregates from the Tris-buffered saline base, extending downstream filter life.
-
2
0.04 µm Pre-Filtration II
Retains finer particulates ahead of catalase, trehalose, and ProClin 300 addition, supporting a consistent, ultrapure formulation.
Performance vs. conventional buffer
Sequential 0.1 µm and 0.04 µm filtration removes finer particulates from the buffer base than a single 0.22 µm pass typical of conventional quenching buffers, supporting cleaner, lower-background multiplex staining results.

Built for sequential, multi-round immunolabeling
HRPQuench-TBS effectively neutralizes HRP activity between multiple staining cycles, providing precise control in complex, multi-step immunolabeling protocols. It enables distinct, non-overlapping labeling of multiple targets within a single specimen while streamlining workflows and reducing overall assay time and reagent consumption.
Automated IHC/IF Staining Platforms
HRPQuench-TBS is compatible with automated IHC/IF staining platforms, supporting consistent, hands-off HRP quenching between staining rounds in high-throughput sequential-cycle protocols.
- Complete HRP Inactivation: prevents signal carryover between automated staining rounds
- Reduced Assay Time: streamlines multi-round IHC/IF workflows on automated systems
- Lower Reagent Consumption: optimized composition reduces overall reagent use per cycle
Micro Physiological System (MPS) & Chip
Tris-buffered saline base suitable for microfluidic wash and quench steps within chip-based imaging workflows.
Wash, Dilution & Reconstitution
TBS-optimized formulation compatible with wash and dilution steps preceding or following HRP quenching.
iPSC-Derived Model Handling
Gentle, tissue-safe quenching supports multiplex labeling of iPSC-derived model sections without disrupting morphology.
Endothelial & Primary Cell Sections
Compatible with sequential HRP-based staining of endothelial and primary cell tissue sections.
Multiplex IHC, TSA-Based mIF & Blocking
Core use case: quenches endogenous and conjugated HRP between staining cycles in multiplex IHC, TSA-based multiplex immunofluorescence, and multi-round protocols using same-species primary antibodies.
Microscopy & Optical Detection
Reduces non-specific background, improving signal clarity for downstream chromogenic and fluorescent optical detection.
