The story of histochemistry goes a long way back and, in the last 150 years, has evolved in parallel with the operating instruments, from bright field microscopy to super-resolution microscopy. In this evolution resides the uniqueness of this science. Compared to the biochemical and molecular methods, the distinctive feature of histochemical techniques is the ability to localize chemical species in the very place (in a tissue, or a cell or an organelle) where they exist, are produced, or operate in vivo; this makes histochemistry an irreplaceable tool in basic and applied biomedical research.
