Antibodies

Antibodies are important tools for identifying, isolating and studying the activity state of proteins.  Moreover, immunohistochemistry allows the localization of proteins in cells.  Most antibodies are obtained from commercial sources although some are made by individual investigators.  Unfortunately, not all antibodies sold work well and not for all purposes.  This section allows investigators to post antibodies that work, what conditions to use, ie dilution  and for what purpose. More than one antibody can be posted for any protein as often it is necessary to use a particular type. We want antibodies tested on pancreas and when possible an illustration showing the result can be included.
