Thermo Scientific™ DyLight™ Microscale Antibody Labeling Kits provide a complete, optimized solution for fluorescent labeling of small quantities of antibody or protein (100 μg per reaction) with DyLight™ NHS ester fluorophores. These microscale kits are ideal for research workflows that require multiple small-scale labeling experiments for applications such as immunofluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, Western blotting, ELISA, and IHC.
Each kit contains pre-measured, single-use vials of amine-reactive DyLight dye, as well as all necessary buffers, purification resin, and spin columns. Labeled antibodies are typically ready in 90 minutes with minimal hands-on time and are suitable for direct use in fluorescence-based detection assays.
Key Features and Benefits
Optimized for Small-Scale Labeling
- Designed to label 100 μg of IgG or protein per reaction.
- Perform up to 5 labeling reactions per kit with consistent results.
Bright, Stable Fluorescent Signal
- DyLight dyes provide high fluorescence intensity and superior photostability across pH 4–9.
- Comparable to or brighter than CyDye and LI-COR™ dyes in most applications.
Reliable Amine-Reactive Chemistry
- NHS-ester-activated dyes form stable amide bonds with primary amines on lysine residues or protein N-termini.
- Specific labeling with minimal nonspecific modification.
Convenient All-in-One Kit Format
- Includes pre-aliquoted dye vials, borate buffer, purification resin, spin columns, and collection tubes.
- No need to weigh reagents or source additional components.
Applications
- Immunofluorescence microscopy (IF)
- Flow cytometry and cell surface staining
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
- Western blot detection
- ELISA fluorescence detection
- In vitro and in vivo protein labeling
