All:Our lab uses a ton of concentrated antibodies and we’ve found that there’s really no such thing as a universal diluent like the ones offered by Leica and Agilent. We get ours from Biocare, they offer five different diluents with different pHs and chemical makeups and we use three of these. I checked with my Biocare rep and iit seems that the one that’s most similar to Leicas is called Monet Blue. I suggest you contact your Bocare rep and see if they can send you a sample of one or more them. Good luck,Jeanine
