Official basis (Framework): Chromogenic ISH and fluorescent ISH are different readouts. Match the probe, host and disease chapter; WSSV, IHHNV and Perkinsus assays are not interchangeable.
Procurement note: Select chromogenic ISH or fluorescence detection. Probe systems are target and tissue specific, not interchangeable with antibody IF.
