[Histonet] double staining in frozen tissue

[Kelly Yang]

Dear all,
Could someone be so kind to share or advise me on a
protocol for double staining immunofluorescence on
frozen human bladder tissue? 

1)Would it cause problem if I use FITC donkey
anti-goat IgG and Alexa 647 goat anti-rabbit together
as my secondary antibody? 
2)Which fixation is better? I had tried 4%
fornaldehyde (at room temp) for 5 min and icy acetone
(-20) for5 min, and found with acetone-fixation, the
morphology of nucleus is very poor. Any suggestion?

Any help will be highly appreciated,
