Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a common in vitro staining technique that uses antibodies to identify specific protein antigens within thinly sliced tissue samples. One of the most common forms of IHC uses tissues that have been fixed in paraformaldehyde and then frozen (IHC-Fr). Specific antibodies are applied to the fixed tissue and typically visualized using either immunofluorescent (IF) or chromogenic reporters.
