In biomedical research, the rise in productivity has made immunocytochemistry a key technique. This book serves as the first practical guide for planning, performing, and evaluating immunocytochemical experiments. Its distinct approach prioritizes practicality over academic theory, unlike other titles that focus on comprehensive discussions. For instance, while some texts list numerous fixatives, only a couple are commonly used today. This guide emphasizes methods that are effective in contemporary animal research laboratories, concentrating on the most productive techniques. Dr. Burry, an expert in the field, provides recommendations and insights tailored to current practices. Given the emerging nature of this discipline, the book highlights specific methods that offer clear advantages over more generalized approaches. The aim is to equip novices with the skills to perform immunocytochemistry without delving into advanced methods, which are covered in other existing literature. This focus on practical application fills a gap for beginners, making it an essential resource for those new to the field.
