Hematoxylin and Eosin staining of PhenoCycler & REG; Fusion flow cell slides

Multiplexed Imaging technologies are powerful techniques that enable ultrahigh-plex spatial phenotyping of whole tissue sections at single cell spatial resolution. Co-Detection by Indexing (CODEX) multiplexing can detect up to 100 proteins using cyclic detection of DNA conjugated antibodies applied to tissue sections. However, it is necessary to correlate multiplexed fluorescent (mIF) spatial images with Hematoxylin and Eosin (H & E) stained sections post analysis. To effectively correlate mIF spatial images with H & E morphology, an (H & E) staining protocol was developed that is directly applied to the CODEX Fusion flow-cell slide after analysis allowing for direct H & E correlation and annotation with mIF images.
