Definitions and Keywords Immunohistochemistry: is a method for identifing the presence and locating the proteins of interest in tissue sections. 2.Antibodies: are very specific, recognize the targets and binds to protein of interest. 3.Fixing: the process by which the cut sections are fixed on to the slides with the help of fixative solution like paraformaldehyde or formalin. Formation of methylene bridge, helps tissue to get fixed to the slides. Fixing is the important step in imunnohistochemistry. 4.Antigen retrievel: the excess formalin used for tissue fix needs to be removed before staining step. The formation of methylene briddge mask antigen sites, this bridge is broken down by heat treatment. 5.Microtome: instrument used for sectioning of tissues.

Learning objectives After interacting with this learning object, the learner will be able to: 1.Perform cutting and mounting of the sections 2.Define rehydrating of the sections 3.Choose antigen retrieval process 4.Carry out immunohistochemical staining process 5.Infer the sections under microscope 6.Assess the troubleshooting steps involved in the experiments
