     Forgive my stupidity, but won't any antibody to P.carinii label
     P.carinii, whether it be in dog, human, pig, pigeon or muddy puddle?
     Your only problem will be whether tissue processing has altered the
     epitopes on your antigen.

There's a paper in J. Vet. Diag. Investigation where they used the Dako
human antibody on dog tissue and got very nice staining. Sukura, et al
JVDI, 1996 8:124-130 January. Haven't heard about anybody doing immuno on
pigs.

I'm looking for several different sources of Pneumocystis carinii
antibody.
Trying to get an antibody to that will cross-react (or  a specific
one if possible??) for P.carinii in swine!

Tried the usual sources but would like to hear all suggestions to see
if I'm missing any. Thanks. Greg
