Books by author

 

Buchwalow: Immunohistochemistry  

By Igor Buchwalow

2010 (1st ed), 153 pages, $179 list

The authors carefully selected the methods and easy-to-adopt protocols discussed. In addition to estabished techniques, special attention was paid to current developments in immunohistochemistry such as antigen retrieval, signal amplification, the use of epitope tags, multiple immunolabeling, and diagnostic immunohistochemistry. All procedures examined have been tested by the authors; many are routinely used in daily practice in their institute. Each chapter starts with a short introduction to the respective method’s underlying principles before presenting step-by-step protocols and instructions, including precise recipes for all materials needed. Thus, the book is suitable for a broad audience, ranging from students and technical assistants to experienced researchers.

 

Burry: Immunocytochemistry

By Richard Burry

2009 (1st ed), 209 pages, 82 illus, $90 list

The philosophy which separates this book from other books in this field is that it is practical, rather than academic. In looking at other important immunocytochemistry titles, the predominant orientation is academic, with the author attempting to comprehensively discuss the topic. For example, one book with sample preparation lists ten fixatives which can be used; however, only two such fixatives are commonly used today. In this particular title, the detailed discussion of old methods might be seen as important in establishing the author as an expert. By contrast, the approach for Burry’s book would be to discuss methods based on what works in animal research laboratories today, and focus only on the most productive methods.

 

Chu: Modern Immunohistochemistry  

By Peiguo Chu

2009 (1st ed), 712 pages, 600 illus, $159 list

This book offers a new and modern atlas-based resource for this science. Every anatomic region is covered in detail, and major diseases contain side-by-side examples of other ancillary staining techniques for comparison. The text is geared toward both the resident and practitioner of anatomic pathology and is supplemented with histograms, algorithms, and guides to the application and interpretation of uncommon antigens and immunostains.

 

Dabbs: Diagnostic Immunohistochemistry
by David Dabbs

2006 (2nd edition), 828 pages, 1010 illus, $289 list

The New Edition of this popular text features world-renowned experts who offer the most current information and reliable guidance on immunohistochemical diagnoses in surgical pathology and cytopathology. The book is organized in a consistent format of organ systems, specifically designed to target diagnostic dilemmas in surgical pathology.

 

Dabbs: Diagnostic Immunohistochemistry   

By David Dabbs

2010 (3rd ed), 960 pages, $369 list

Diagnostic Immunohistochemistry presents the latest information and most reliable guidance on immunohistological diagnoses in surgical pathology. David J. Dabbs, MD and other leading experts bring you state-of-the-art coverage on genomic and theranostic applications, molecular anatomic pathology, immunocytology, Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and more. Additional features such as tables discussing antibody specifications, differential diagnosis boxes, ancillary anatomic molecular diagnostics, and full-color histological images ensure user-friendly coverage that makes key information easy to find and apply. The fully searchable text is also available online at expertconsult.com, along with a downloadable image bank and access to Path Consult. This concise and complete resource is today's indispensable guide to the effective use of immunohistochemical diagnosis.

Nadji: Efficient Tumor Immunohistochemistry
By Mehrdad Nadji, Mehdi Nassiri and Azorides Morales

2006 (1st ed), 325 pages, $200 list

This book represents a vast leap forward in advancing the practical value of IHC in today's surgical laboratory by meeting the critical need for guidance in selecting markers that will take you from differential diagnosis to final diagnosis quickly and confidently.

  

Oliver: Immunocytochemical Methods and Protocols        

By Constance Oliver

2009 (3rd ed), 391 pages, 44 illus, $110 list

In Immunocytochemical Methods and Protocols, Third Edition, expert researchers explore the modern methods employed in the field today,  now widely used to identify, in situ, various components of cells and tissues in both normal and pathological conditions, and to demonstrate the localization of subcellular components. Chapters provide methods that are designed to be general in their application and to appeal to investigators across all disciplines, including those in research and clinical settings. Composed in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, chapters contain a brief introduction, step-by-step methods, a list of necessary materials, and a Notes section which shares tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

 

Taylor: Immunomicroscopy; September 2005 (3rd edition), 624 pages, $115.  Practical and intended for day-to-day use, this state-of-the-art New Edition presents the elements of immunohistochemistry in the context of the "total test".  In each chapter, readers will find infectious diseases and prognostic markers and a molecular morphology perspective, focusing on DNA, RNA, and protein, thus offering the surgical pathologist a genuine ability to see with molecular eye.
