How to succeed with your IHC: buffers and chemicals.
September 17, 2019
Successful immunohistochemical staining requires reliable, high-quality reagents to fixate, wash, and permeabilize the tissue. But what is the rationale behind the fact that certain buffers or storage conditions are better to use than others, or is it all just empiric?

August 20, 2019Have you ever obtained an amazing result that contradicts previous theory? If all looks well in the experiment, why not trust it? -
Where are your proteins? An overview using the Cell Atlas
July 23, 2019The human body is the result of a trillion cells communicating with each other. Early biologists described cells as simple membranous sacs containing fluid and a few floating particles. Today we know that cells are infinitely more complex than that. Read here about the Cell Atlas, part of the Human Protein Atlas, for insights into the spatio-temporal distribution of proteins within human cells. -
How can I stain multiple proteins in the same tissue or cell?
June 25, 2019Multiplexing-IHC simultaneously quantifies different immune markers on individual cells within different tumor types. But how do you stain multiple proteins in the same cell or tissue? -
3 steps to publishing a paper using the Tissue Atlas - a case study
In this blog, we tell you about that time when researchers interested in a new therapeutic target for patients with type 2 diabetes, knocked at our door asking for help, and how we used the Tissue Atlas to answer their questions. But let’s start from the beginning. -
Interview with a scientist: multiplex IHC - past, present and future challenges
May 28, 2019Multiplex immunohistochemistry is a powerful investigative tool that allows for the simultaneous visualization of multiple proteins on a single section by using a specific antibody for each protein of interest. Read our interview with Dr. Kristian Moller about the past, present, and future of multiplex immunohistochemistry. -
