Fluorescence immunohistochemical detection of hypoxic cells in spheroids and tumours.
Polyclonal antibodies have been raised in rabbits to a haemocyanin adduct of a reductively-activated, fluorinated analogue of misonidazole. Fluorescence immunohistochemical studies show that the polyclonal antibodies bind to spheroid sections and tumour sections in patterns similar to those revealed by autoradiographic studies with a tritium-labelled derivative of the fluorinated misonidazole analogue.
