In-situ hybridization (ISH)
In-situ hybridization (ISH)
In-situ hybridization is used to determine the location of specific nucleotide sequences in cells and tissue sections.The technique involves the binding of a complementary nucleotide probe to the target sequence to form a hybrid. Enzyme or fluorescent-labeled antibodies are employed to visualize binding and slides are then evaluated by a pathologist using a microscope. Multiplex methods allow for simultaneous evaluation of proteins (immunohistochemistry) and nucleic acids (in-situ hybridization) in a single section.
About our nonclinical animal research models: We provide the utmost care for our research animals and actively pursue advances in animal welfare. As well as ensuring the highest scientific, ethical and regulatory standards, selection of appropriate animal research models for development research is critical to developing safe and effective treatments, devices and products that protect and save lives. Just as we have ethical committee oversight for human trials, we have ethical committees overseeing all aspects of our global animal care and use programs. All of our core, nonclinical facilities are accredited by AAALAC.Learn more about our commitment to replacing, reusing and refining nonclinical research models.
