regarding your hard-to-process antibodies--are they manufactured by a
company, or has an individual made them? does this make a difference?
in response to my own question, the antibodies we receive from
Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank (DSHB, University of Iowa),
Molecular Probes, and Rockland Immuno work very well.  our problem is
with antibodies from individual labs.
could this be a problem with shipping? the antibodies we receive from
individual labs are not on dry ice, but a PI told me that since human
antibodies can survive at high temperatures, shipped antibodies can
survive it as well.*

*all of this does not apply to Chemicon antibodies, which suck.
