【Objective】 This research aimed to determine the appropriate antibody concentration for immunohisto- chemical staining of estrogen receptor (ER) in testes of plateau zokor (Eospalax baileyi).【Method】 We selected the testes of 10 adult male plateau zokors were selected to detect the staining effect of estrogen receptor α(ERα) and es- trogen receptor β(ERβ) at three different dilution concentrations:1∶150,1∶200,and 1∶250 using the immunohisto- chemical SP method (IHC SP method).【Result】 The mean immunohistochemical optical density of ERα antibody diluted at 1∶250 was significantly higher than that of antibody diluted at 1∶150 and 1∶200(P<0. 05). In contrast,the immunohistochemical mean optical density of ERβ antibody diluted at 1∶200 was the highest (P<0. 01). At the opti- mal dilution concentration, positive cells exhibited intense staining with a clear background.【Conclusion】 For the tes- tes of plateau zokors, the ideal antibody concentrations for ERα and ERβ were found to be 1∶250 and 1∶200,respec- tively,as these concentrations yielded the best immunohistochemical staining effects.
