While I do not know of an antibody specific for KS, there is an antibody for
HHV8. Almost all KS is positive with this anitbody. The antibody is clone
LN-1 from Advanced Biotech., catalog #12-210-001. A positive signal yields a
speckled nuclear pattern. I would suggest that you do your own in-house
validation with this antnibody and KS. If you need any other info, please
contact me.
