Richard,
Novacastra (available from Vector in the US) has a polyclonal (catalog
NCL-ARp) that works on rat paraffin sections (on hamster too).  I use it
at 1:40 overnight 4oC  incubation with microwave citrate buffer
pretreatment. I use a labeled strep avidin -HRP system with DAB.  There
is more background than I would prefer but the monoclonals I tried have
not worked.
