A sensitive staining procedure for glucose oxidase (GOD) as marker in immunohistology is described. The cytochemical procedure involves a two-step enzyme method in which GOD and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are coimmobilized onto the same cellular sites by immunological bridging or by the principle of avidin-biotin interaction. In this coupled enzyme technique, H₂O₂ generated during GOD reaction is the substrate for HRP and is utilized for the oxidation of chromogens such as 3,3’-diaminobenzidine or 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole. Indirect antibody labelled and antibody bridge techniques including the avidin (streptavidin)-biotin principle have proven the usefulness of this GOD labelling procedure for antigen localization in histological sections.
