[Histonet] F4/80 antibody

[Gayle Callis]

Histonet archives (www.histosearch.org) has informtation on F4/80 (you 
should do a dilution panel on tissue expressing mature macrophages to 
determine optimal working concentration adn start at 10 ug/ml.)

 From one Histonet message, Barb Wright did Pretreatment:  0.4% Pepsin in 
0.1N HCl (5 minutes at 37°C).    As for secondary, we use TAGO/Biosource 
goat antirat F(ab')2 frag of IgG, biotinylated adsorbed to mouse or Jackson 
Donkey antiRat F(ab')2 frag of IgG-biotinylated adsorbed to mouse (and 
other species) 0.5 mg/ml dilutrd 1:250.  If you do not have success with 
the ABCAM antibody, buy SEROTEC - it works very well.
