Immunohistochemistry is finding an ever increasing application for electron microscopic diagnosis of human viral diseases. Certain progress has been made in the use of peroxidase-DAB/OsO4 as an electron-dense marker, and colloid gold. The paper discusses immunohistochemistry application for electron microscopic detection of such lymphotropic viruses as VSV (virus of vesicular stomatitis cultured in mink's lung cells), HTLV-1 (virus of human T4-cell C91P1 lymphoma culture) and HTLV-III/HIV-1 (virus growing in human T4-cell H9 culture).
