Immuno and Lectin Histochemistry for Renal Light Microscopy
互联网
256
Histochemistry is a basic technique in the analysis of cell and tissue biology. Advances in staining techniques have provided the resolving power necessary to study complex organ structures such as the kidney. In this chapter we detail standard histochemical techniques used in our laboratory to localise antigens and carbohydrates with immuno and lectin binding, respectively. Our focus is on immunohistochemistry with fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections, and its application in the research laboratory.
