ABSTRACT
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can be demonstrated in tissue sections by immunohistochemistry (IHC), which has the power to localize in bright field specific antigens in cells and tissues. The use of double or triple immunostains is capable of highlighting which cells are infected and/or the relationship of infected cell with other cells and tissue structures. In addition, immunoenzymatic multi-staining permits the simultaneous identification, localization, and enumeration of different cellular epitopes. Moreover, this method improves analytical precision, decreasing the time required for morphometric quantification, maximizing the information obtained from a single slide of paraffin-embedded tissue.
