Which p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2) antibody do you suggest for paraffin-embedded immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) with mouse samples?

We have several monoclonal antibodies studying p44 and p42 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), also referred to as Erk2 and Erk1, that are validated for IHC-P for mouse samples. These are p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2) (137F5) Rabbit mAb #4695 and p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2) (L34F12) Mouse mAb #4696. For this application, p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2) (137F5) Rabbit mAb #4695 is preferred, as p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2) (L34F12) Mouse mAb #4696 could be problematic due to mouse-on-mouse (MOM) background staining.
