Test Details
The immunohistochemistry lambda light chains test is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of lambda light chains in tissue samples. Lambda light chains are a type of protein found in antibodies produced by plasma cells.
This test is commonly used in the diagnosis and monitoring of certain diseases, such as multiple myeloma and other plasma cell disorders. It helps to determine if there is an abnormal production of lambda light chains in the tissues, which can indicate the presence of these diseases.
During the test, a tissue sample is taken and processed to create thin slices, which are then placed on slides. These slides are then treated with specific antibodies that are designed to bind to lambda light chains. If lambda light chains are present in the tissue sample, they will bind to the antibodies and produce a visible reaction, which can be observed under a microscope.
The immunohistochemistry lambda light chains test is a valuable tool in the diagnosis and management of certain diseases, providing important information about the presence and distribution of lambda light chains in tissues. It is typically performed by pathologists or other trained laboratory personnel.
