[Histonet] CD 4/CD 8 staining of frozen stomach sections of mice

[Manuelle De Bock]

Hello everyone,

I am trying (for a long time allready) to produce a good CD4/CD8 staining of frozen stomach tissue (mice). We use the Dako rat anti-mouse CD4 antibody but always encounter a large amound of background  after staining (it seems like there is a lot of cross reactivity with the glandular epithelium). Can anyone help me to solve this problem ?
Thanx !
