Notes

APC/Cy7® Conjugation Kit / APC/Cy7®Labeling Kit ab102859 uses a simple and quick process for APC/Cy7 labeling / conjugation of antibodies. It can also be used to conjugate other proteins or peptides. Learn about our . To conjugate an antibody to APC/Cy7®using this kit: - add modifier to antibody and incubate for 3 hrs - add quencher and incubate for 30 mins The APC/Cy7®conjugated antibody can be used immediately in WB, ELISA, IHC etc. No further purification is required and 100% of the antibody is recovered for use. The excitation and emmision wavelengths for APC/Cy7® are Ex: 650nm, Em: 774nm. Learn about buffer compatibility below; for incompatible buffers and low antibody concentrations, use our rapid . Use the  to learn more about the technology, or about conjugating other proteins and peptides to APC/Cy7®. Custom size conjugation kits up to 100 mg are available on demand. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

This product is manufactured by Expedeon, an Abcam company, and was previously called Lightning-Link® APC/Cy7 Labeling Kit. 765-0015 is the same as the 1 mg size. 765-0010 is the same as the 3 x 100 ug size. 765-0030 is the same as the 3 x 10 ug size. 765-0005 is the same as the 100 μg size.

1 Ideal antibody concentration is 1mg/ml. 0.5 - 1 mg/ml can be used if the maximum antibody volume is not exceeded. Antibodies > 1 mg/ml or < 0.5 mg/ml should be diluted /concentrated.

Buffer Requirements for Conjugation

Buffer should be pH 6.5-8.5.

Compatible buffer constituents
If a concentration is shown, then the constituent should be no more than the concentration shown. If several constituents are close to the limit of acceptable concentration, then this can inhibit conjugation.

50mM / 0.6% Tris10.1% BSA50% glycerol
0.1% sodium azide3PBSPotassium phosphate
Sodium chlorideHEPESSucrose
Sodium citrateEDTATrehalose

1 Tris buffered saline is almost always ≤ 50 mM / 0.6%

Incompatible buffer constituents

ThiomerosalProclinGlycine
ArginineGlutathioneDTT

If a constituent of the buffer containing your antibody or protein is not listed above, please contact us.

Only purified antibodies are suitable for use, ie. where other proteins, peptides, or amino acids are not present: antibodies in ascites fluid, serum or hybridoma culture media are incompatible.

Storing and handling conjugation kits

Lyophilized Lightning-Link® components are hygroscopic.

Kits are intentionally shipped at ambient temperature with silica gel to avoid exposure to moisture. Upon receipt, store the kit frozen and protect from moisture. Before opening the outer container, allow the lyophilized components to reach room temperature to minimize condensation.

    SJL/J mice were immunized with PLP139–151 and scored daily for clinical disease. A cohort of SJL/J mice was sacrificed, and spinal cords were analyzed by flow cytometry (n = 5). (A) Cells were distinguished from debris by forward and side scatter then singlet cells were gated. Live cells were gated by dead cell exclusion, and CNS resident cells were identified as CD45− or CD45low. (B) Oligodendroglial cells were defined by double positive staining: A2B5+PDGFRα+ early OPCs, A2B5+NG2+ intermediate OPCs, NG2+O4+ late OPCs, O4+MOG+ pre-myelinating oligodendrocytes, and GALC+MOG+ mature oligodendrocytes.

    Data shows flow cytometry gating strategy used to define γδ T cells (TCRγδ+CD3+CD335−), CD4+ T cells (CD4+CD3+TCRγδ−CD335−), CD8+ T cells (CD8+CD3+TCRγδ−CD335−) and NK cells (CD335+CD3−) in the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of mesenteric and subcutaneous bovine adipose tissue (MAT and SAT, respectively) and in peripheral blood leukocytes. Dead cells were excluded with Fixable Viability Dye (FVD), lymphocytes were gated based on SSC-A versus FSC-A and singlets were selected from the FSC-A versus FSC-H dot plot.

    The flow cytometry gating strategy used to define CD45RO+ and CD62L+ T cell subpopulations is also shown in CD8+ T cells.
