Abstract
Immunocytochemical analysis is an effective method for providing a differential assessment of protein expression and localization in tissue samples. A variety of methods exist for immunocytochemical analysis including: immunofluorescence, immunoperoxidase, and streptavidin—biotin linked methods. Furthermore, both paraffin embedded and frozen tissue samples can be utilized for immunohistologic analysis.
