- Anti-ubiquitin immunocytochemistry is more sensitive than conventional techniques in the detection of diffuse Lewy body disease.
- Problems encountered when immunocytochemistry is used for quantitative glial cell identification in autoradiographic studies of cell proliferation in the brain of the unlesioned adult mouse.
- Therefore, the goal of immunocytochemistry is to create an antibody that bind to an epitope on the protein you want to label.
