Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Record Type:Technique

Validation:GLP,Non-GLP

Models:Mouse,Rat,Rabbit,Canine,Mini-pig,NHP,Human

Disease:Oncology

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a technique that utilizes antibodies that specifically recognize and bind different antigens in cells or tissue samples. The technique uses antibodies that are either conjugated to enzymes or a fluorescent dye to allow visualization of the distribution and localization of specific cellular components under a microscope.

The table below lists some examples of the cells which can be determined through CD markers via IHC across our facilities worldwide.
