Immunohistochemistry is a more general term that may encompass immunofluorescence. Immunohistochemistry involves antigen-antibody reactions that enable the investigator to study the cell. In immunofluorescence, the antibody is generally linked to some fluorescent moiety thus allowing the investigator to visualize, and/or quantify the antigen of interest. Immunofluorescence is a type of immunohistochemistry.
