[Histonet] antibody needed

[Kimwa Walker]

Hi,

   The laboratory I'm working in is currently trying to complete IHC assays
on tissues for an important study of uterine fibroid tissues. The antibody
we've been utilizing is the Rabbit Polyclonal version of Ki-67 purchased
from Vector Laboratories (catalog# VP-K451, lot# 301107), in conjunction
with their Alkaline Phosphatase Detection Kit. We've recently exhausted our
supply of this lot of antibody and have tried the assay with Vector's newest
lot # for this antibody, but haven't had a successful stain at all. So, we'd
like to complete the remainder of the slides we need to stain with the
original lot that we've been using. Unfortunately, Vector Labs no longer has
any supply of the #301107 rabbit polyclonal batch left either, so I wanted
to see if anyone out there might have this particular batch of Ki-67 in
their stock (it has to be the specific clone and lot# as mentioned above)
that our lab might arrange to borrow or purchase from you. If you don't have
the antibody yourself, but know where else it might be found, I'd like to
hear about that too. Any assistance anyone can provide would be hugely
appreciated. Thanks much!
