Dorte,

I believe that the only available antibody that recognizes activated
GPIIb/IIIa is the PAC-1 IgM antibody and it is sold by Becton-Dickinson.
They sell it for $345 for 200ug of unlabelled antibody and $225 for the
FITC conjugate. There is no IgG equivalent antibody available either
commercially or that has been described in the literature.
