I work on porcine tissue regularly and I can't confirm the 10%.
Maybe I accidentially used only the highly conserved proteins, I didn't
check on that.
But I usually try anti-human antibodies and most of the time they work

I routine use anti-human antibodies to stain mouse tissue, so it can be
done. It completely depends on the antigen they used to immunize. If the
human and pig proteins are highly homologous or identical, then it has a
good chance of working. If they're not, you're in uncharted territories. If
