Immunocytochemistry (ICC) Experiment Service
Instruction manual
First Edition (Revised on April, 2016)
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Immunocytochemistry (ICC) is a detection technique combined with cytochemistry and immunological techniques. It is on the basis of specific recognition of antigen and corresponding antibody. ICC could specifically detect intracellular peptides, proteins, membrane proteins and other biological molecules based on chemical chromogenic substances or fluorescent substances.
Available Services
1. Preparation of adherent cells.
2. Preparation of positive and negative samples (including cell culture, cell stimulation, cells transfection, animal models, etc.).
