Thank you for your enquiry. For ab1287, the originator has recommended using 0.1 M citrate buffer, pH 6.6 and 1mM EDTA. For ab2254, we would suggest microwave pre-treatment in citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for 5 mins high then 5 mins simmer (800W conventional microwave). If you have any additional questions, please contact us again.
