Reagent Blocker(PAP Pen) is a hydrophobic barrier marker pen, which repels the aqueous based reagents. When encircled around the tissue, it lets the reagent sit on the tissue and helps prevent the loss of reagents. It also helps in uniform spreading of reagent on the tissue and save cost per slide too. Reagent Blocker is insoluble in alcohol and acetone but soluble in Xylene and thus makes it useful for immunohistochemical applications.
