[Histonet] Basic ISH and IHC

[Kelly D Mcqueeney]

Try the Roche website, it's pretty informative
http://us.diagnostics.roche.com/
click on *research*
then *printed materials*
then *non-radioactive In Situ Hybridization
Application Manual. *They give a nice description of the experiment, 
reagents, and WHY you use them. *

For IHC, try *Current Protocols in Immunology. *
