Subject: Immunofluorescence or histochemistry methods for mitochondrial stainHallo everybody,I have some frozen sections and 4% paraformaldehyde fixed/paraffin embedded sections of respiratory epithelium I would like to stain for mitochondria. I'm trying some immunofluorescence methods, but looking for suggestions in HistoNet I found out that there are also some histochemistry methods to visualize mitochondria in tissues (Cain's, Novelli...).Since I'm not an experienced histologist, can anybody give me some advices/references (where maybe I could find a detailed protocol) about these methods?Thank you very much in advance!AlessandraDr. Alessandra Livraghi, PhD
