Hello Flowers,
For those of you following Clevenger-type methods for staining cells for DNA
plus an intracellular antigen:  after p-formaldehyde fixation and treatment
with 0.1% Triton-X,  do you leave  detergent in the washing and staining
solutions for all  subsequent  steps?   Published protocols seem rather
ambiguous on this point.  We want to cut down on non-specific staining,  but
suspect that the triton-X will interfere with our specific staining as well.  
Thanks for your help.
