However this expression is somewhat weak. I thought of using anti-GFP antibodies to stain and thus amplify my signal. And was wondering if anyone has tried this before (stained gfp-fusion worms with anti-gfp antibodies)?. If so, could you recommend a commercial brand of anti-GFP antibody that you found works best? thanx, Guy .
