Antibody removal

An investigator in our Institute asked me a question that I'd like to
pass along:
He is doing a multicolor sorting experiment and wants to remove the
fluorochrome labeled antibody after sorting, before he puts the cells
into culture.
The only thing I could think of was trypsin treatment, but I was
unsure of the long term effects of this, or whether this would cause
more harm than good.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
