EXTERNAL SENDER- Exercise caution with requests, links, and attachments. Jennifer MacDonald asked, "Can anyone recommend a good book for processing animal tissue?" Here's a list of 14 of the ones published since 1990, with very brief descriptive notes. There are, of course, plenty of good books that are older than these. Lyon,H (1991): Theory and Strategy in Histochemistry. A Guide to the Selection and Understanding of Techniques. Springer-Verlag, Berlin. All on theory; no instructions. All aspects of preparation, staining etc are covered. 32 chapters, by different people; one bibliography. Reprinted 2011. ISBN 9783642737442. Kok,LP; Boon,ME (1992): Microwave Cookbook for Microscopists. Art and Science of Visualization. 3rd ed. Coulomb Press Leyden, Leiden. 432 pages. Plenty of microwave theory. Applications in fixation, infiltr, embedding, decalcif., many staining methods including conn.tiss., cytol., neuro. Enzyme, immuno- & hybridization histochemistry. Sanderson,JB (1994): Biological Microtechnique. (Microscopy Handbooks, 28.) BIOS Scientific Publications & Royal Microscopical Society, Oxford. 224 pages. Detailed paractical instructions, with rationale, & titled bibliography for each of the 7 chapters. Collection, Fixation, Processing, Microtomy, Other prep. methods, Staining, Finishing (mounting etc). Chayen,J; Bitensky,L (1991): Practical Histochemistry. 2nd ed. Wiley, Chichester. 321 pages. Special emphasis on use of unfixed cryostat sections. Presnell,JK; Schreibman,MP (1997): Humason's Animal Tissue Techniques. 5th ed. Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore. 572 pages. Humason's Animal Tissue Techniques, 5th edition. Includes chapters on immunohistochem, safety, microwaves, lab hints, suppliers, etc. Hayat,MA (1993): Stains and Cytochemical Methods. Plenum Press, New York. Book of techniques. Many are critically discussed. emphasis on EM, but plenty of LM too. Carson,FL; Hladik,C (2009): Histotechnology. A Self-Instructional Text. 3rd ed. American Society of Clinical Pathologists, Chicago. 400 pages. Freida Carson's textbook. 3rd ed, with Hladik, is 96 pages longer than 2nd (1997); with EM and cytopreparation; glossary. ISBN 9780891895817. (There is a 4th ed, 2015, which I haven't seen.) Kiernan,JA (2015): Histological and Histochemical Methods: Theory and Practice. 5th ed. Scion, Banbury, UK. 606 pages. Kumar,GL; Kiernan,JA (Eds.) (2010): Education Guide: Special Stains and H & E. 2nd ed. Dako North America, Carpinteria, CA. 300 pages. 33 chapters. Photos. PDF file is a free download from https://www.agilent.com/en/dako-pathology-education-guides/. Wick,MR (Ed.) (2008): Diagnostic Histochemistry. Cambridge University Press, New York. 460 pages. Multi-author book. Applications of techniques to path. diagnosis. Chapters by systems, organs, diseases etc. Emphasizes value, economy of pre-1970s (before immuno) histochemical methods. Only Ch1, pp.1-27 describes techniques. Many colour photos. Orchard,G; Nation,B (Eds.) (2012): Histopathology. Oxford University Press, Oxford, UK. 396 pages. Multi-author textbook book. Applications of techniques to path. diagnosis. Chapters mainly by methods, with applications to systems, organs, diseases. One of an Inst. of Biomed. Science series, with web site at www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/orc/fbs/<http://www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/orc/fbs/>. Mulisch,M; Welsch,U (Eds.) (2015): Romeis - Mikroskopische Technik. 19th ed. Springer-Verlag, Berlin. 603 pages. 25 chapters, 3 appendices. All types of microscopy, staining, histochem, etc. (in German) ISBN 9783642551901. Exbrayat,JM (Ed.) (2013): Histochemical and Cytochemical Nethods of Visualization. (Series Ed: Morel,G. Methods in Visualization.) CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL. 335 pages. 13 chapters, 10 contributors. 1-7 are for LM; 8-12 for EM; 13 on image quantification. ISBN 9781439822227. Suvarna,SK; Layton,C; Bancroft,JD (Eds.) (2018): Bancroft's Theory and Practice of Histological Techniques. 8th ed. Churchill Livingstone Elsevier, London. 672 pages. In this 8th ed., histochem chapters for lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, enzyme activities are now compressed into Appx I (of VIII). Hope this helps. For older books, look in AbeBooks, Amazon etc for ones by GG Brown, HC Cook, CFA Culling, RAB Drury, M Gabe, P Gray, RW Horobin, G Humason, JFA McManus, AGE Pearse. John A.
