LAB

The technique utilizing unlabeled primary antibody, biotinylated link secondary reagent and pre-formed avidin-biotinylated horseradish peroxidase complex is known as the ABC method. (1) It has been reported that immunohisto-logic reactions using peroxidase coupled to streptavidin display greater sensitivity than ABC procedures. (2,3) In this method, the LAB method, the enzyme is covalently linked directly to the streptavidin molecule can be labeled with multiple enzymes. The resulting complex is relatively small, enabling many streptavidins to bind to the biotinylated secondary antibody. The biotin is also more accessible due to the use of a long carbon spacer arm which reduces potential steric hindrance. (1) Hsu, S-M, Raine, L. and Fanger, H. (1981) Am J Clin Pathol 75:734.

Signal Detection Cy3 is excited maximally at 550 nm and fluoresces maximally at 570 nm. It is excited to about 50% of maximum with an argon laser (514 nm or 528 nm lines), or to about 75% of maximum with a helium/neon laser (543 nm line) or mercury lamp (546 nm line). Cy5 is excited maximally at 650 nm and fluoresces maximally at 670 nm. It is excited to about 98% of maximum with a krypton/argon laser (647 nm line) or to about 63% of maximum with a helium/neon laser (633 nm line). Cy5 produces minimal autofluorescence of biological specimens in this region of the spectrum. A confocal microscope equipped with the appropriate laser for excitation and a far-red detector enable double labeling with Cy3 and Cy5.

DyLight Dyes Emission Spectra

DyLight 680 and 800 dyes emit in the near infrared and infrared ranges of the light spectrum respectively and are ideal for multicolor protein detection in Western blotting. Unlike fluorescent conjugates that emit in the visible range, DyLight 680 and 800 conjugates provide a unique set of advantages: • Secondary antibodies with defined specificity and

sensitivity • Brighter signal than visible fluorescence • Virtually no background autofluorescence from membranes or most biological specimens Effective Alternative to Chemiluminescence • Broader dynamic range than chemiluminescence • Quantitation accuracy superior to traditional

methods • Easy to assay multiple proteins simultaneously on one Western blot • Cost-effective - eliminates need for chemilumin-

escence substrates, film and darkroom • Clean results - no bleeding from consecutive lanes

DyLightTM Fluorescent Conjugates KPL AntibodiesWhat Sets Them Apart In 1979, KPL pioneered the production of large-scale affinity purification and was the first company to commercialize affinity purified secondary antibodies. Rigorous standards throughout the antibody production process make our antibodies standout in the marketplace. Many manufacturers cut corners by beginning with inferior serum and extracting the useful antibody towards the end of their process. KPL spends considerable effort developing and purifying its own immunogen formulation to generate the antiserum, because pure immunogen results in a more potent and specific antibody prior to any purification steps. Further, ISO 9001:2008-certified quality procedures are carried out at more than six different stages of the antibody production cycle, and material that does not meet our high standards for potency and cross-reactivity is rejected. Our late stage purification process has been continually refined since 1979 and relies on a one of a kind custom column resin which is uniquely suited to our antibody manufacturing process. Finally, our process of pooling antiserum from multiple animals tempers natural serum variability, minimizing variances from animal-to-animal. The result is more standardized large-scale antibody lots with increased consistency. KPL’s experience, innovative processes, and attention to detail result in highperformance antibodies that are unique.

ELISpot ELISpot Protein DetectorTM ELISpot Kits Protein Detector ELISpot kits are designed to provide complete, flexible systems for conducting ELISpot assays with any matched pair of antibodies. For the beginner or the more experienced researcher, these kits are ideal due to their comprehensive reagents and optimized protocol. Convenience Each kit contains all reagents for ELISpot detection except for matched antibody pairs (unlabeled coating and biotinylated antibody). Stable, ready-to-use, one-component substrates and uncoated Multiscreen速 PVDF Plates are included. Other kit components are supplied as concentrates; simply dilute and use. Stability All kit reagents are stable for a minimum of one year, providing reliable signal development and consistently low background.

Visualization Visualizing immunospots has never been easier with the exceptional localization and resolution provided by kit substrates. For sharp localization and fine resolution of bright blue immunospots, choose the HRP kit with TrueBlueTM substrate. For excellent visibility from a dark purple precipitate, choose the AP kit with BCIP/NBT substrate. Flexibility Universal nature of reagents allows kits to be used with any matched pair of antibodies. Since labeled streptavidin is compatible with any biotinylated antibody, the researcher simply provides the antibody pair for detection of different cytokines or other secreted proteins. Additional flexibility is offered through two kit formats. Choose between the HRP kit with TrueBlue or the AP kit with BCIP/NBT.

Image above. Mouse spleen cells secreting IFN-gamma were detected in ELISpot with either BCIP/NBT (top rows) or TrueBlue Substrate (bottom rows).

TrueBlue™ TrueBlueTM Peroxidase Substrate for Immunohistochemistry TrueBlue is a highly sensitive chromogenic substrate for visualization of horseradish peroxidase-labeled reporter reagents. It provides a brilliant blue specific stain, which contrasts sharply with red counterstains. TrueBlue Substrate is a buffered solution containing 3, 3’, 5, 5’-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2). TrueBlue offers the following benefits:

Economical TrueBlue permits extremely high dilutions of costly primary antibodies. You can perform many more assays with TrueBlue, saving you time and money. This stable, liquid system eliminates waste and reduces preparation time.

Ideal for Multiple Staining Highest Sensitivity TrueBlue is 50 to 100 times more sensitive than DAB. It provides an excellent means for detecting low abundant target antigens.

TrueBlue forms a dark blue reaction product that offers outstanding contrast with DAB and other substrates in sequential localization assays.

Safe–to–Use Highly Stable and Convenient TrueBlue is non-carcinogenic and safe-to-use, no special handling and disposal required.

TrueBlue is provided as a stable, singlecomponent working solution that is readyto-use. No reagent preparation required.

TrueBlue™ Technical Tips TrueBlue Comparison to DAB

• Primary antibodies must be diluted 10 to 50 times further than with DAB, otherwise sample will overstain. Excess substrate may wash off the section, causing the appearance of understaining.

Methodology TrueBlue and DAB were compared using increasing dilutions of monoclonal antibody to latent cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigen on CMV-infected, acetone-fixed fibroblast cell monolayers. Monolayers were immunostained using identical protocols (monoclonal antibody and conjugate incubations of 30 minutes each, and substrate incubations of 10 minutes each).

• Color development in less than 10 minutes indicates that the primary antibody is too concentrated. • Blocking is essential because TrueBlue is extremely sensitive. Trace levels of peroxidase and nonspecific binding sites in the tissue must be neutralized to prevent background staining.

Conclusion

• Peroxidase block solution must be thoroughly removed by washing; it can affect antibody activity.

TrueBlue exhibited 100 times higher sensitivity than DAB. When using TrueBlue, dilute primary antibodies 10 to 50 times further for superior staining and lower background.

• KPL recommends non-aqueous mounting reagent. Fading will occur if aqueous media are used. • Stained sections must be completely dry or color may fade rapidly after mounting.

in situ Hybridization DNADectectorTM in situ Hybridization Kits DNADetector in situ Hybridization Kits provide simple sensitive detection of DNA in cells, tissues, and metaphase chromosomes. Available for both chromogenic and fluorescent methods, these convenient kits include everything you need for in situ hybridization and detection of DNA except for biotinylated probe. DNA Detector Chromogenic in situ Hybridization Kit:

Biotin-labeled primary antibody must be supplied by kit user. DNADetector Fluorescent in situ Hybridization Kit: • Cy3 conjugates provide 5 - 10 times greater fluorescence than fluorescein-labeled probes1.

• Brilliant blue stain gives excellent contrast to red counterstains.

• Cy3 conjugates are more photostable than FITC or TRITC. Bright fluorescence can still be seen 6 months after staining.

• TrueBlueTM substrate provides superior resolution; very fine precipitate vs. large clumps of color with BCIP/NBT.

• No new filters required. Cy3 conjugates are visualized using the standard filters for TRITC.

• Sensitivity equal to that of FISH with permanent results.

• Kit contains all reagents, including control slides to perform in situ hybridization. Biotin-labeled primary antibody must be supplied by kit user.

• Kit contains all reagents, including control slides to perform in situ hybridization.
