    Overview

    • Product name

      Alexa Fluor® 555 Conjugation Kit (Fast) - Lightning-Link®
    • Product overview

      Alexa Fluor® 555 Conjugation Kit - Lightning-Link® (ab269820) provides an easy-to-use, one step procedure that allows researchers to covalently label proteins, peptides and other biomolecules containing primary amines with Alexa Fluor® 555 with only 30 seconds hands-on time; furthermore conjugates are ready to use in less than twenty minutes.


      The antibody to be labeled should be purified, in an appropriate buffer for conjugation and at a suitable concentration. 


      Learn about buffer compatibility below; for incompatible buffers and low antibody concentrations, use our rapid antibody purification and concentration kits. Use the FAQ to learn more about the technology, or about conjugating other proteins and peptides to Alexa Fluor® 555.


      Custom size conjugation kits up to 100 mg are available on demand. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

    • Notes

      This product is manufactured by Expedeon, an Abcam company, and was previously called Lightning-Link® Rapid Alexa Fluor® 555 Labeling Kit. 333-0015 is the same as the 1 mg size. 333-0010 is the same as the 3 x 100 ug size. 333-0030 is the same as the 3 x 10 ug size. 333-0005 is the same as the 100 µg size.

      1 Using the maximum amount of antibody may result in less labelling per antibody. 

      2 Ideal antibody concentration is 1mg/ml. 0.5 - 1 mg/ml can be used if the maximum antibody volume is not exceeded. Antibodies > 2mg/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% Tris1 0.1% BSA2 50% glycerol
      0.1% sodium azide PBS Potassium phosphate
      Sodium chloride HEPES Sucrose
      Sodium citrate EDTA Trehalose

      1 Tris buffered saline is almost always ≤ 50 mM / 0.6%
      2 BSA can also interfere with the use of the conjugated antibody in tissue staining.

      Incompatible buffer constituents

      Thiomerosal Proclin Glycine
      Arginine Glutathione DTT

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