Dear Histoneters
I need some advices. I'm working with human embryos between 7 and 14 weeks.
we used Sonic Hedgehog Shh (C-18) and sc-1195 antibodies of Santa Cruz
Biotechnology in paraffin sections of embryos fixed in paraformadehyde. I
don't have good results. 
Could anybody help me with some advice, concerning to every step of my
technique? 

Thanks in advance

Sohail, 
First, Perhaps you should try incubating each primary with respective
secondary only, to determine how they look separately, and also make
sure each is working on its own. For example, you may not have your aSMA
dilution correct. Also, do you have a positive control for TRITC to make
sure you can detect any TRITC signal adequately? Once you have
appropriate signal from both, you can then make your cocktails. Also, in
the future, I would recommend switching to Alexa Fluors from Molecular
Probes, they really are great. In your instance you would use AF488
(FITC) and AF 546 or 555 (TRITC). But that is just my 2 cents. 

Good luck,
Melissa

Hello everybody
   
  I have a big problem of staining retina vasculature using a cocktail
of two different antibodies. The problem is that i can only see staining
with FITC but not with TRITC, hence i cant make a merger of both FITC
and TRITC. 
   
  Cocktail of primary antibodies include (1) Monoclonal Rabbit Anti
human vWF (2) Monoclonal mouse Anti alpha SMA and cocktail of secondary
antibodies include (1)  Anti rabbit FITC (2) Anti mouse TRITC
   
  Please let me know your commentc to slove this issue.
   
  Dr.Sohail

	I am a new subscriber to this list and I am reading

	I came across a posting from Reni J. responding to
	a request from Sharon:

Sharon:
  I am sending privately a procedure I have that substitutes xylene with
mineral oil. It is 100 times less toxic than xylene and 3 times cheaper.

Does anyone use xylol substitutes, if so how good are they?
We do CJD testing & "the powers that be" don't like to pay for getting rid
of contaminated xylol. I don't want to have to start testing different
substitutes, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
