RHS is developing panels to look at multiple antigens in a tissue section at one time.
Antibody Work-up for Immunohistochemistry
RHS provides a service to optimize conditions for immunohistochemical detection of antigens in paraffin and frozen sections.
Slide Scanning and Image Analysis
RHS uses digital slide scanning and customizable digital image analysis for tissue tethered cytometric analysis.
Hematoxylin and Eosin
One of the hallmark stains of histology, H&E is a widely used stains for tissue evaluation. This stain can highlight basic tissue architecture and give clues to tissue changes.
About Research Histology Services
Research Histology Services (RHS) is located in East Wing of the 15th floor of the Thomas E. Starzl Biomedical Science Tower at the University of Pittsburgh. Our goal is to provide routine and specialized histology, single and multiplex immunohistochemistry, digital slide scanning, and other (image analysis, 3D reconstruction, etc.) services to prinicpal investigators and researchers throughout the University of Pittsburgh and in the external biomedical community. We operate in a collaborative manner and will only work with customers with whom we have a formal collaborative agreement (i.e. via a grant or contract).
