 AB    1. Immunocytochemical procedures have played an increasingly larger role
       in the identification of infectious disease agents in tissue sections
       owing to the increased availability and specificity of antibody
       reagents, the great sensitivity of the methods, and the relative
       facility with which the studies are performed. 2. Immunocytochemical
       methods can be applied to routine formalin-fixed tissue for the
       detection of infectious agents such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, and
       protozoa among other microorganisms for diagnostic and research
       purposes.
