Description:
AF488 Streptavidin Conjugate (also known as Alexa Fluor® 488 Streptavidin Conjugate) is ideally suited for the specific, fluorescence-based detection of biotinylated biomolecules (e.g. RNA or DNA) in histochemical, flow cytometry, blotting and microplate assays. The detection of Biotin relies on its high affinity (KD= 10-15 M) to Streptavidin that is labeled with the photostable, hydrophilic AF488 dye (also known as Alexa Fluor® 488). AF488 can be detected with the standard FITC filter set.
Degree of Labeling (molar dye/protein ratio): 2 - 4
Preparation of 1 mg/ml working solution:
Add 1 ml ddH2O, vortex and spin-down briefly.
