If anyone can suggest me the source of caspase-8 antibody best working for mouse brain tissue?

05 May 2018 1 6K Report

Hi,

I have to do IHC staining of caspase-8 in AD tg mouse brain tissue. If anyone can provide the best source and protocol for IHC-P staining of mouse brain tissue with caspase-8, it will be helpful.

Thanks,

Dmitry Zinovkin
