Abstract
Immunocytochemistry remains a valuable and necessary tool for biologists working with nematodes, even those nematode model organisms with advanced molecular genetic tools and transgenics. Because of the highly idiosyncratic nature of successful immunostaining procedures, innovations can still be found for this long-established technique. Heat-induced antigen retrieval (HIAR) is well known from other systems, but seems not to have been applied to antibody staining in nematodes. For some antigens, adding HIAR to an established antibody staining protocol for nematodes can reveal strong and reliable staining that without HIAR is poor or completely absent.
