[Histonet] porcine insulin

[Kim Merriam]

I would use a biotinylated anti-guinea pig antibody.  I'm not sure if the anti-rabbit antibody would bind the the GP primary antibody you are using.  I'm pretty sure that Vector sells an anti-GP secondary antibody (I think they also sell a guinea pig ABC and alk phos kit, depending on the detection system you are using).
 
Good luck,

Hello everybody,

I'm hoping someone can give me any suggestions on how to detect insulin on a
(paraffin embedded formalin-fixed or frozen) porcine section using the
following antibodies:

- primary antibody: Guinea Pig anti-insulin (Dako)
- secondary antibody: Swine anti-Rabbit (Dako)

According to the DAKO catalogous the anti-Rabbit should work in this combo.
I have tried it over and over again, using different protocols, but somehow
I just can't get the job done... 

Thanks in advance!
