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.
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:

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 Immunochemistry
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.

microarrays, and microdissection, along with the benefits and limitations of
each method.
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.
