Pretreat the sections with 3M guanidine hydrochloride in dH20 for 3-5
minutes as a subsititue for the formic acid which is harsh on the mouse
brain. Attached is the protocol that we used for studies with transgenic
mice.  The hydrolytic autoclave method gave very consistant results with
antibodies to beta amyloid.
