Anti-Ken and Barbie antibody (ab21780)

I am a graduate student in UW-Madison. I am interested in the Drosophila antibody Anti-Ken and Barbie antibody (ab21780). It has been used in one paper for IP. However, we are interested in doing IF with it. Did anyone try to see if it at least localizes to the nucleus. If not I would like to test this with a sample run. Is this possible? I will send you the results. If it does work we will probably start ordering a large quantities of this antibody.
