[Histonet] CD68 and CD204 for dogs/pigs

[Goins, Tresa]

I just received Cd204 from Biorbyt but have not validated a protocol.
They are located in the UK but have a distributor in San Francisco so shipping is not outrageous.  

References to its application: 

The class A macrophage scavenger receptor CD204 is a useful immunohistochemical marker of canine histiocytic sarcoma.

If you or anyone has had success with this antibody, please let me know.

Thanks,

Can anyone recommend vendors for CD68 and CD204 that work on dogs and pigs (on FFPE tissue)?  I don't seem to find much information on species cross-reactivity online.

Thanks much in advance.
