[Histonet] mouse endothelial cell staining

[Margaret Horne]

Hello Histonetters,
     I am looking at doing IHC on rat endothelial cells ( aortas) in 
Epon. Had been looking into using von Willebrand Factor ( Factor 
VIII  ).
    I noticed in this Thread that people are using CD31.   Curious as 
to the pros and cons of CD31 vs v WF.  Has anyone out there 
worked with an endothelial cell marker in Epon? 

              Any info much appreciated,

                                      Margaret
