Abstract
There many different ways to use labels or tags attached to antibodies for immunocytochemistry. Initially, in 1942, the label was attached directly to the antibody, which bound to the antigen. Since then, many different methods have been developed to indirectly bind labeled antibodies to the antigen. More recent methods have increased sensitivity in detecting low frequency antigens.
