Fine Structure Immunocytochemistry

Focusing on the complexities of electron microscopy in biological sciences, the book explores two main disciplines: high-resolution imaging of particles and the analysis of thin sections. It critiques the often vague theoretical foundations of the latter, likening some processes to alchemy rather than chemistry. The author questions the reliability of results when traditional methods are clouded in mystery, especially regarding data presentation and antibody labeling. Reflecting on the state of multi-authored textbooks, the text aims to clarify these intricate techniques and their scientific validity.
