[Histonet] Antibodies storage tips

[Rene J Buesa]

I used to have several compartmented plastic alphabetized boxes with enough empty spaces to accommodate "new arrivals". If the spaces were used-up I just added a new box. Since they occupied several shelves, each shelf had the lettering identifying the boxes in each one.René

 Hi all,

In our lab we carry out quite a number of IHCs for research purposes. 
The number of mAbs and pAb stored in the frezeer is getting to the point 
that, when you need to do and IHC, you actually lose more time diving 
through the frezeer draws for the right vial than doing the IHC! is not 
a question than we are running our of freezer room, it is more to the 
point of having a proper and standarized way to keep the antibodies and 
than produce a proper registry of what we have and where to find it.

I was wondering, in an attempt to avoid reinventing the wheel, if you 
could be as kind as to share your tips for storing and organizing the 
antibodies (aliquots, stock solutions, intermediate dilutions....) so 
chaos does not take over the lab!

As always, thank you very much for your time and advice!

Cheers

Julio
