Biotechnic & Histochemistry is an interdisciplinary journal that embraces all aspects of techniques for visualizing biological processes and entities in cells, tissues and organisms; papers that describe experimental work that employs such investigative methods are appropriate for publication as well.

Papers concerning topics as diverse as applications of histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, cytochemical probes, autoradiography, light and electron microscopy, tissue culture, in vivo and in vitro studies, image analysis, cytogenetics, automation or computerization of investigative procedures and other investigative approaches are appropriate for publication regardless of their length. Letters to the Editor and review articles concerning topics of special and current interest also are welcome.

Biotechnic & Histochemistry is abstracted or indexed in: U.S. National Library of Medicine-MEDLINE, Current Contents (Life Sciences), Science Citation Index, Research Alert, ISI BioMed, EMBASE Excerpta Medica, Chemical Abstracts Service, Biosciences Information Service, Reference Update, and Research Information Systems.

Biotechnic & Histochemistry offers electronic submission and manuscript handling through Scholar One. All papers are peer-reviewed and review times are short. The Editorial Board and external experts in the appropriate field will provide insightful and constructive reviews.
