Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a method for detecting and localizing protein expression in tissue sections. Immune complexes are visualized by reacting tissue sections with specific antibodies. Target proteins can be visualized and localized under a microscope using stains or fluorescent labels. IHC is widely used in cancer diagnosis, pathology research, and biomedical research, providing key information for understanding the expression and localization of proteins in tissues.

Related Experimental Schemes

  • Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is based on the specific reaction of antigen-antibody to study proteins and other antigens in tissue sections qualitatively and locatively. IHC can be divided into immunofluorescence method, immunoenzyme-labeled method and immunocolloidal gold technology according to the types of labeled substances.
