I have a question similar to this one.
If I take 2 IVD antibodies say cytokeratin AE1/AE3 and 34BF12 and make these
into one cytokeratin cocktail, is this considered an ASR because I combined
them into another antibody?

The disclaimer is only for ASR antibodies. They don't have to be labeled
"experimental" because a CLIA certified lab has full capability and
authority to validate any antibody they want to use for any purpose. You do
have to document your validation procedure and results.
You can also use RUO antibodies under CLIA regs as long as you do the full
documented validation. Interestingly there is no suggested disclaimer for
RUO antibodies.

Subject: [Histonet] CAP QUESTION ANP.12425 ASR disclaimer on pathology
reports
What is the current practice for meeting this regulation? Is a general
statement (disclaimer) placed on all pathology reports that have
immunocytochemistry and/or
FISH and ISH or is the disclaimer placed only on the reports where the class
1 ASR antibody or nucleic acid have been used?
Thanks for your input?
