IHC Stains

We are pleased to highlight a recent publication by Dr. Nikolaos Pipis in Biomaterials Advances (Elsevier), titled “Injectable aptamer-functionalized nucleic acid–collagen hydrogels as a bioactive platform for angiogenic applications.” This work represents the culmination of Dr. Pipis’s doctoral research at the University of Florida and presents the first in vivo…

Quadruple or multiplex IHC is becoming more mainstream. Shown below are islets from three species (human, rat, and pig) stained for somatostatin (SS, green), glucagon (GCG, red), insulin (Ins, blue) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP, black).
