In the issue we demonstrate results of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) detection by chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) in epithelial and lymphoid cells of the palatine tonsil in patients with chronic tonsillitis. Virus genome detections were performed using RNA-probes with digoxigenin-labeled oligonu...
