I have heard from a lot of big time BD antibody users and they have 
not noticed any problems. The antibodies involved were PerCP, PE and 
FITC and different isotypes. It is very hard to believe this could be 
a problem in the manufacturing. We had a clod snap at the time these 
antibodies were shipped to us. We think they may have frozen in the 
back of a delivery truck. I have heard from on individual who 
received a vial once that was still frozen. Moral of the story- look 
for frozen material when receiving antibodies.
