Histology Services
From routine tissue processing to advanced multiplex imaging, we provide a full suite of cellular histology services for academic, clinical, and pharmaceutical research.
Tissue Processing
Automated and manual tissue processing with precise dehydration, clearing, and paraffin infiltration protocols.
What's included
- Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) processing
- Fresh-frozen tissue handling
- Automated and manual processing workflows
- Customisable protocols for delicate or unusual specimens
- Full chain-of-custody documentation
H&E Staining
High-quality haematoxylin and eosin staining for routine morphological assessment with consistent, reproducible results.
What's included
- Standard and modified H&E protocols
- Optimal section thickness (3–5 µm)
- Automated staining for consistency across batches
- Suitable for FFPE and frozen sections
- Coverslipped and ready for imaging or pathology review
Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
Comprehensive IHC services using validated antibody panels for protein expression analysis in FFPE tissue.
What's included
- Validated antibody library covering 200+ targets
- Antigen retrieval optimisation
- Chromogenic (DAB, AP-Red) and fluorescent detection
- Positive and negative controls included
- Quantitative scoring on request
Immunofluorescence
Multi-channel immunofluorescence imaging for co-localisation studies and spatial protein mapping at cellular resolution.
What's included
- Single and multiplex immunofluorescence panels
- Tyramide signal amplification (TSA) available
- DAPI counterstaining as standard
- Compatible with FFPE and frozen sections
- High-resolution confocal and widefield imaging
Digital Imaging & Analysis
Whole-slide digital scanning and quantitative image analysis using AI-assisted tools for objective, reproducible data.
What's included
- Whole-slide scanning at 20× and 40× magnification
- AI-assisted cell counting and area quantification
- Co-localisation and intensity analysis
- Data delivered as structured reports or raw files
- Compatible with QuPath, HALO, and ImageJ workflows
Custom Staining Panels
Bespoke staining protocols developed in collaboration with your team to meet specific research or diagnostic requirements.
What's included
- Protocol development and optimisation
- Special stains: PAS, Masson's Trichrome, Alcian Blue, and more
- Multiplex panel design for complex co-expression studies
- Validation against reference standards
- Full SOP documentation provided
Block Sectioning
High-throughput paraffin block sectioning at 50–100 blocks per hour, delivering consistently thin, artefact-free sections ready for downstream staining and analysis.
What's included
- High-throughput capacity: 50–100 blocks per hour
- Precision microtome sectioning at 3–5 µm thickness
- FFPE and decalcified tissue blocks accepted
- Sections mounted on charged or poly-L-lysine coated slides
- Serial and step sectioning available on request
- Strict quality checks for section integrity and ribbon continuity
- Full sample tracking and chain-of-custody documentation
