Suggestions for a good antibody for IHC staining for glutamatergic cell bodies?

23 April 2013 1 5K Report

I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for antibodies that they have used to stain for glutamatergic cell bodies (and preferably not terminals) via IHC in tissue slices?

Bill Jackson

Hi Sam. Let us know if you don't find a suitable antibody. We specialize in discovery of novel DNA aptamers as antibody replacements. We working on protocols for selecting aptamers against FFPE and related samples. We'd be willing to work with you on a collaborative basis if you're willing. Please see www.BasePairBio.com for more info. Best, Bill
