Annotation: ... mouse monoclonal antibodies against synthetic cyclic somatostatin 15-28 conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanine (antibody 8, Buchan et al. 1985) were applied in a dilution of 30 micrograms protein/ml. .the sections were... incubated with fluoresceine isothiocyanate (FITC) conjugated to goat (1:40; Boehringer Mannheim Scandinavia, Stockholm, Sweden) or sheep (1:10, Amersham, Little Chalfont, England) anti-mouse antibodies for 30 min at 37C. In addition control experiments using sections of the
cerebellum at different stages of development were performed by incubation with antibodies preabsorbed with 10 micrograms SOM 15-28 peptide (Peninsula Labs, Belmont, CA, USA) per ml diluted antibody.
