title: [Modification of direct immunofluorescence assay to study paraffin-embedded renal and skin tissue sections].
abstract: Immunofluorescence assay has been widely used so far to diagnose glomerular and some skin diseases. The optimal antigen persistence is achieved using the frozen sections; however, their considerable shortcoming is the impossibility to long store preparations and to use a morphology archive. Our laboratory has modified a direct immunofluorescence study on paraffin-embedded renal and skin tissue sections, substantially increasing its accessibility.
