Advantages of Gold Conjugates

  • Sensitive technique (100pg or less in dot blotting when used together with our silver enhancement kit)
  • This small gold nanoparticle conjugate is ideal for increasing sensitivity in immunohistochemistry protocols when used together with our silver enhancement kit for microscopy.
  • Provides a permanent label

Storage/Stability

  • Store undiluted in storage buffer at 2-8 degree Celsius. Stable for 4 months if stored as specified.
  • Storage of conjugate at working dilution may result in performance loss.
