[Histonet] Recommendations for HRP anti Rabbit and mouse and AEC substrates

[Morken, Timothy]

Patrick, 

Vector, Lab Vision (Thermo), Jackson Labs, Scytek Labs, all have much less expensive reagents than Dako. Scytek Labs supplies re-badged reagents for many, many companies and has a large selection of reagents.

Subject: [Histonet] Recommendations for HRP anti Rabbit and mouse and AEC substrates

Hi everyone,

I have been using DAKO Kits for HRP anti rabbit and HRP anti Mouse and AEC substrates.

I love DAKO, but their kits and reagents are expensive.

Can anyone offer an alternative for HRP labeled anti (Rabbit/Mouse) antibodies and AEC substrate kits.

I do all my IHC manually by hand.  I am doing my IHCs primarily on FFPE slides of various tissues, some of which are large enough that they take up a lot of the slide, and hence need more drops to get complete coverage.

Thanks

Patrick.

PS: I am considering Vector Labs, and I am also looking at Biocompare to seek out more vendors.
      Has anyone tried Spring Bioscience's products?
