Brian,
I haven't seen your procedure for antigen retrieval before. I usually see 
heat/citrate buffer or some kind of protease treatment. It seems pretty 
straightforward. Have you ever used this procedure for keratins or 
basement membrane proteins?

I have performed antigen retrieval by leaving slides overnight in the
refrigerator immersed in PBS + 0.05% Tween 20. I'm sure there are many 
other
ways to accomplish antigen retrieval, heat merely accelerates the process.


Thanks. 
Mel
