Isotype Concentrations

If I have a mixture of 3 unlabeled mouse monoclonal Abs to different cytokeratins, how do
I choose an isotype control concentration?  Each individual Mab is at 1 microgram/ml
(total of 3 micrograms/ml) and each is an IgG1 isotype.  Would you suggest I use a single
unlabeled IgG1 control at 1 or at 3 micrograms/ml?  I also want to use these for some
immunohistochemistry staining.  Can I use the same isotype control for this?
Thanks for any comments!
