Histologic section of a pancreatic mass removed from a 10-year-old male, castrated golden retriever diagnosed with a beta-cell carcinoma. The section has been stained with guinea pig anti-insulin antibodies using the avidin-biotin-complex peroxidase method. The brown staining within neoplastic cells indicates the presence of insulin.
