RE:Ki67 for Human Cells in Mouse tissue

From:Chris van der Loos

Dear Mateo,
I have been struggling for the same problem with double staining using a 
rabbit anti-Ki67 and mouse antibody. A couple of weeks ago the problem was 
solved. Our NeoMarkers (Lab Vision Corp.) rep came in with a new rabbit 
monoclonal (you read this right) anti-Ki67. Clone SP6, product number 
RM-9106-R2. I tested the stuff and found out this antibody works fine 
indeed, maybe even better as the old Dako rabbit anti-Ki56!
