[Histonet] mouse macrophage

Gustave:
Serotec's rat-anti mouse F4/80 works great on all treated tissues. Use a mouse liver as your positive control.

Hello,
 
I am in need of a good macrophage marker on FFPE tissue.  I will be using it on mouse tissue... mainly the heart (but other tissues may be included).  So far I have looked into a number of antibodies (CD68, Mac-2) but can never be certain which one to choose.
 
Thank you in advance for your help.
 
Sincerely,
 
Gustave
