InnovaCoat® Gold 40nm Streptavidin

InnovaCoat Gold 40nm Streptavidin Antibody Labeling Kit [250-1000]

InnovaCoat® Gold 40nm Streptavidin Summary

• Description: InnovaCoat GOLD is a unique coated nanoparticle that has an avidly bound protective surface coat which can withstand the most extreme conditions (e.g. 2.5M NaOH at 70oC for 2 hours).
  
  By covalently attaching streptavidin to the surface coat the resulting InnovaCoat GOLD-Streptavidin nanoparticles inherit the stability attributes of the core nanoparticle; moreover the streptavidin ligand cannot desorb, which is a major problem with all the competing products in which the streptavidin is directly attached to the metal.
  
  OD (concentration): 10
  Size of gold: 40 nm

Applications/Dilutions

• Application Notes: To determine the effective concentration of the conjugate obtained we advise to measure the Absmax of light using an UV-vis spectrophotometer after diluting your sample to an appropriate range for your piece of equipment (e.g. if a 40nm gold conjugate is at 10 OD and is diluted 1:10 the Abs530nm for a 1 cm light path is expected to be around 1 AU).

Packaging, Storage & Formulations

• Storage: Store at 4C. Do not freeze.
