Immunohistochemistry is the microscopic localization of specific antigens in tissues by staining with antibodies labeled with fluorescent or pigmented material."^^ . _:genid354 "American_Heritage:The_American_Heritage_Dictionary_of_the_English_Language--4th_Ed"^^ . _:genid354 "American_Heritage:The_American_Heritage_Medical_Dictionary_2007"^^ . _:genid354 "Dorland:Dorlands_Illustrated_Medical_Dictionary--31st_Ed"^^ . _:genid354 "ISBN:978-1416049982"^^ . _:genid354 "Website:http://www.answers.com"^^ . _:genid354 "Wikipedia:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_spectrum"^^ . . .
