Immunohistochemistry has long been a cornerstone technique in biomedical research, but there have been major new developments in recent years, including a growing trend towards automation and high throughput technology. These new techniques, often coupled with some of the established methodology, have seen an expanding range of applications. Immunohistochemistry: Methods Express is a comprehensive research guide that describes both the key new techniques and more established methods. Every chapter discusses the merits and limitations of the various approaches and then provides selected tried-and-tested protocols, as well as a plethora of good practical advice, for immediate use at the bench. This book is an essential laboratory manual for all life science researchers who use immunochemistry. It is a book which both experienced researchers and those new to the field will find invaluable.
