Re: [Histonet] Good antibodies for macrophage detection in rat samples

From:Gayle Callis

F4-80 ( a rat antimouse monoclonal) is for mouse macrophages, not 
rat.  There are several well documented rat macrophage antibodies, go to 
Serotec and look for these.  ED1, ED2, ED3  are subsets.  These mouse 
antiRat  monoclonals were detected with goat antimouse secondaries that 
mouse IgG isotypes (IgG1, etc) biotinylated from Southern Biotechnology.
