A) What  additional reagents would you need to perform immunostaining of frozen sections of mouse  thymus tissue for Keratin 8 that is expressed in cortical thymic epithelial cells and Keratin 5 that  is expressed in mouse medullary thymic epithelial cells? B) Create a staining protocol including  all tubes and appropriate controls to stain 4 slides with frozen thymic sections. You will need  200ul of antibody staining solution for each slide.
