[Histonet] CD204 (MSR1) antibody that works well

Hello to the group:

I am looking to find a CD204 (MSR1) antibody for use on human cells by  
immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin sections. Does anyone on  
the list use a validated, commercially available clone that works  
well? A small number of companies makes the antibody (Abcam, AbD  
Serotec, Atlas Antibodies, Cosmo Bio Co., Novus Biologicals and  
Transgenic, Inc).  The original paper that I studied, by J-W Tjiu in  
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2009 used a monoclonal antibody  
(Mab 2708) from R & D Systems, but I believe that it may be useful  
only for flow cytometry. Many thanks for your help!
