[Histonet] Re: IHC in porcine tissues

Try MAC387 that is a macrophage/monocyte marker that cross reacts in porcine.  We use the one from abcam.  We have found that some of the anti-mouse polymer reagents cross react to porcine so we use a rabbit anti-mouse from Dako E0464 as a secondary and then an envision rabbit or strept avidin and that works much better.

Dear Colleagues
 What  secondary antibody or polymer would be better to use for mouse primary antibody on FFPE  porcine tissues?Also, please share your experience regarding macrophages detection in porcine arteries. I found couple in Abcam and Serotec (only for frozen), but your opinions is very valuable.
Thank you
