Linda,
         Sorry to say there's no such thing. VEGF, despite any 
specifications, just doesn't work properly. We've tried at least 4 
different vendors with hardly any success. Either it didn't label at all, 
labeled in all the wrong places, or the negative control looked the same as 
the test tissue. Check the controls closely if you try this. It's just not 
a reliable antibody.
Regards,
Amos Brooks
