What Techniques Are Used to Study Amino Acids in Histology?
Several techniques are employed to study amino acids in histology, including Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Mass Spectrometry (MS), and Western Blotting. IHC uses antibodies specific to amino acid sequences to detect proteins in tissue sections, while MS provides detailed information on the amino acid composition of proteins. Western blotting helps in identifying and quantifying specific proteins, giving insights into their role within tissues.
