Bacterial proteins, too, can be identified and analysed in infected tissue by combining new techniques for the production of antibodies with the expanding science of immunocytochemistry (which looks at the reactions to those antibodies of individual components of cells).

To his delight, the extracted tissue thrived and grew, and many of the cells in the resulting culture did indeed contain proteins known to be characteristic of neural stem cells.

The shavings were then immunostained bathed in a special reagent that would mark the presence of abnormal proteins with a bright, telltale red or brown stain on the surface of the tissue.
