High-sensitivity biotin detection reagent for chromogenic and fluorogenic assay systems
The Invitrogen™ Streptavidin, β-galactosidase Conjugate is a solid-form, high-activity biotin-binding protein–enzyme conjugate designed for signal amplification in chromogenic and fluorogenic assays. This reagent combines streptavidin—which binds biotin with exceptional affinity and specificity—with the reporter enzyme β-galactosidase, enabling ultrasensitive detection in a variety of research applications.
When paired with biotinylated molecules (antibodies, nucleic acids, or other ligands) and appropriate chromogenic or fluorogenic substrates, this conjugate facilitates strong, measurable signals in ELISA, blotting, in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry workflows.
Key Features
- High-Affinity Biotin Binding – Streptavidin offers rapid, stable binding to biotin for consistent assay performance
- Robust Signal Amplification – β-galactosidase catalyzes chromogenic or fluorogenic substrate conversion for high sensitivity
- Versatile Applications – Compatible with ELISA, blotting, ISH, IHC, and other biotin-based detection systems
- Stable Solid Form – Convenient long-term storage and reproducibility
- Research Grade – Optimized for laboratory research use
Applications
- Detection of biotinylated antibodies or nucleic acids in immunoassays
- Signal amplification in chromogenic and fluorogenic detection systems
- In situ hybridization for nucleic acid probe detection
- Immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry with biotin-based labeling
- Reporter assays utilizing β-galactosidase substrates for sensitive readout
