Hello Nancy Shellhorn
    We at DIANON get good results with the antibody Glycoprotein IIIa,CD61
from DAKO (catalog #N1571).
    We use heat induced epitope retrieval (HIER), for 20 min. Then 30 min in
primary antibody, 10 min in secondary, 10 min tertiary using the LSAB2 kit.
good luck,
let me know how you do.
