Horseradish peroxidase cross-reacts during cytochrome oxidase histochemistry
Experimental Brain Research
|January 1, 1985
Abstract:
Injections of horseradish peroxidase conjugated with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA-HRP) were made into the cortex of kittens. When cytochrome oxidase histochemistry was performed on sections taken through the injection sites staining of the WGA-HRP deposits occurred, demonstrating that WGA-HRP can cross-react during processing for cytochrome oxidase.

Overview
01:04Crossed Aldol Reactions: Overview
Crossed aldol addition is the reaction between two different carbonyl compounds under acidic or basic conditions. Here, both the carbonyl compounds function as nucleophiles and electrophiles. As shown in Figure 1, such a reaction yields a mixture of products, two of which are formed via self-condensation, while the remaining two are formed via crossed-condensation. Without adjustment, the reaction's usefulness in organic chemistry is decreased.
01:22Immunocytochemistry and Immunohistochemistry
Immunocytochemistry (ICC) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) are techniques that use antibodies to check for specific proteins or antigens in a sample. The technique was first published by Albert Coons in 1941 to detect the presence of pneumococcal antigen in tissue sections from mice infected with Pneumococcus. Immunocytochemistry helps localization of proteins or antigens in individual cells like blood cells, stem cells, etc., while immunohistochemistry does the same for tissue samples.
