Microscale Antibody Labeling Kits

Microscale Protein Labeling Kits conveniently label small amounts (20–100 μg) of purified protein with a bright, photostable Alexa Fluor® dye or the hapten, biotin-XX.

  • Convenient—labeled proteins ready in 2 hours requiring approximately 30 minutes actual hands-on time
  • Versatile—label proteins with molecular weights between 12 and 150 kDa, including IgG antibodies (~150 kDa) and quantities ranging from 20-100 µg
  • Reliable—protein conjugates with stable attachment of fluorescent labels or haptens

How Microscale Antibody Labeling Kits Work

The Microscale Protein Labeling Kits use an amine-reactive fluorophore or biotin to covalently attach the label to the protein or IgG antibody. Once formed, the covalent bond between the label and the protein is extremely stable; you are using the same chemistry we use to prepare our own primary and secondary conjugates.

Unlike our other antibody labeling kits, these kits have been optimized for labeling proteins between 12 and 150 kDa; thus, they label other proteins besides IgG antibodies.

Any stabilizing proteins (i.e., BSA), must be removed prior to the labeling reaction. Convenient spin columns purify the labeled protein (Figure 1) with yields between 60 and 90%, depending on the molecular weight of the starting material. The entire labeling and purification procedure can be completed in as little as 2 hours—everything needed to perform three conjugations is provided.
