Mamma carcinoma metastatic into lymph node: Cytokeratin immunostaining (chromogen: aminoethylcarbazole)
Mamma carcinoma: detection of Cytokeratin in carcinoma cells metastatic into lymph node (chromogen: aminoethylcarbazole). Hemalaun counterstain
Pituitary gland: FSH staining in gonadotrophs (chromogen: diaminobenzidine). Hemalaun counterstain
Human stomach: immunostaining of gastrin in pyloric antrum mucosa cells
Lymphoid cells: HIV p24 antigen staining in infected lymph cells (chromogen: aminoethylcarbazole). Slight hemalaun counterstain
Tonsil: immunoperoxidase staining of immunoglobulins. IgA stained with chromogen aminoethylcarbazole, and IgG stained with chromogen diaminobenzidine (hemalaun counterstain)
Pancreas: tissue sections immunostained for insulin and somatostatin, respectively. Hemalaun counterstain
Lymphatic tissue: muramidase immunostaining of non-lymphocytic cells (chromogen: diaminobenzidine). Hemalaun counterstain
Prostate gland: PSA immunostaining of prostate gland epithelium (chromogen: diaminobenzidine). Hemalaun counterstain
Liver: liver tissue section incubated with serum from patient with autoimmune hepatitis. Antibody binding detected by indirect immunoperoxidase method (chromogen: amioethylcarbazole). Note staining of canaliculi biliferi (syn. bile canaliculi). No counterstain
