Manual Of Immunohistotechnology Histotechnology And Cytotechnology (Flexicover 2023)

This is a complete, though short, textbook on these specialized subjects. Immunohistochemistry is presented as a single compact chapter. Histopathology chapter starts with the receiving of a specimen, grossing, processing and eventual microtomy and applying routine and special stains. Decalcification, often needed for hardbony specimens, has not been overlooked. Cytopathology is covered as a complete yet concise chapter.The book highlights aspects of quality management in easy to assimilate protocols. Formulations of special and routine stains are presented just in case if you would like to prepare your own solutions. However, as immunohistochemistry antibodies and kits cannot be developed at routine setups, under commercial appendix you will find what instruments you will require and from where to procure these. Safety aspects have been given due importance. By following and applying the processes and protocols mentioned, you can attain ISO 15189 or NABL accreditation comfortably.This is the first book available in international literature which gives together all the three diagnostic technologies/platforms immunohistotechnology, histotechnology and cytotechnology in a holistic manner.
