Subject: [Histonet] Fixation sensitive IHC markers


Dear Histonetters,

Can anyone suggest an antibody that I could use on human FFPE samples that
shows relative degrees of reactivity, based on variable factors such as
fixation time or tissue autolysis?  I would like to assess the reactivity
of commercially available tissue bank samples.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
