In my experience, identical clones from different companies are not always equivalent.

In other words, we are using clone #XX#X from Company A. Someone else has had success using clone #XX#X from Company B. Is there any benefit to buying the antibody from Company B to try, or would it be a duplication of effort and cost? Thanks for your input!
