Optimal antigen localization in human tissues using aldehyde-fixed plastic-embedded sections

JH Beckstead

Although the utility of antigen labeling techniques in frozen tissues is well known, it is generally acknowledged that an improvement in morphologic preservation is desirable. Conventionally processed paraffin-embedded tissues are limited in the range of antigens that can be detected and newer plastic embedding techniques have been even more restricted. By using cold (4 degrees C) processing and limited fixation a wide range of antigens (including T and B markers) has been demonstrated in 2 mu plastic sections. The morphologic preservation and antigen localization are superior to other techniques. The combination of precise antigen localization and excellent morphologic preservation should expand the diagnostic and investigative uses of immunohistology.
