	Just bought , from Chemicon, a mouse anti-human collagen type VI
monoclonal antibody (Cat.No. MAB3303). If anyone is using it, what dilution
are you using, a ball park figure will do. I asked Chemicon and they say
start at 1:250 for brightfield and 1:20 for fluorescence. I'll be using the
antibody for a confocal study so must use fluorescence. By the time I do a
dilution trial starting at the suggested 1:20 and with only 50µl of neat
antibody the study is going to cost a fortune. Any ideas on dilution will
be most welcome.
Ian.
