Microscopy - Most of our data is in the form of microscopic images. Both histochemical and immunocytochemical techniques are employed in the lab and applied to cell culture and rat and human tissues. Depending on the question, we employ multiple antibody labeling, antigen retrieval, and/or signal amplification. Brightfield, fluorescence and confocal images are recorded with digital cameras. Multi-headed brightfield microscope and video monitor are available for group viewing.
