Wai Kit Cheng

Can anyone give his/her advice on this issue?

Marcia Gasis

Hello Wai Kit Cheng.

Why not? Theoretically anti-rabbit-Ab should bind to STAT1-P and STAT2-P and anti-mouse-Ab to STAT1. Did you do it?

Greetings

I never tried to put both of them into one box for incubation.

Thanks for your answer, Marcia
