Good afternoon!
We are a small lab trying to begin an IHC and immunocytochemistry 
program.  Our pathologists have given us a list of various antibodies they 
would like to have and my question is, what is the best way to 
begin?  There are various leukocyte markers, intermediate filaments, 
cytokeratins, hormones, immunoglobulins, and an "other" category proposed 
and I could use help getting started and pointed in the right 
direction.  Almost all the MT's and HT's here have never been exposed to 
immunos.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
