[Histonet] looking for LDL receptor antibody

[GUTIERREZ, JUAN]

If by LDL you are referring to low density lipoproteins, my guess is no.  Lipids are usually dissolved during processing by xylene.  I think you are stuck with frozens.  Then again I might be wrong, good luck.

Does anyone have access to LDL antibodies for "paraffin" sections.  I can find some for frozens but would like to do the IHC on paraffin sections if possible.  Any suggestions as to where to look?  Anyone with a protocol?   Can it be done?
Thanks in advance.
