I've had good luck with murine anti-CD31 in paraffin sections of human
xenografts in tissue fixed with a modification of Beckstead's zinc.  

Tris 12.1 g
Calcium chloride 0.5 g
Zinc acetate  10 g
formalin 13.5 mL
Distilled H2O to 900 mL

adjust pH until clear

Bring to 1000 mL

We published using this this fixative in Tang Y et al.  CAncer Res 65:3193,
2005
