You can do it, I have done it, BUT you will have to wash very well the well (no pun intended) to make sure that there are no cross-reactions. René J.

Is it necessary to transfer sections to "clean" culture wells with a paint brush every time I wash or incubate with antibodies? I find this causes significant damage to my tissue (especially since I do a lot of washes etc.). Could I simply use a pipette to draw out the old solution and then replace with the appropriate solution? What do most people do in these situations?
