Product Summary for Lightning-Link (R) Rapid Type A Biotin Antibody Labeling Kit
Our Lightning-Link Rapid technology can be used to label small quantities of antibody with 100% recovery. The researcher simply pipettes the antibody or other biomolecule into a vial of lyophilized mixture containing the label of interest and incubates the reaction for only 15 minutes (for more details please watch the video below). As there are no desalting or dialysis steps that commonly interrupt traditional protein labeling procedures.

The attachment of biotin to biomolecules is an important laboratory technique. Biotin binds to the tetrameric avidin proteins, including streptavidin and neutravidin, with exceptionally high affinity, and this interaction is exploited in various applications such as western blotting, immunohisthochemistry and ELISA. Our biotinylation kits are optimised to create high quality conjugates and minimise assay background.
Lightning-Link Biotin Has been optimized for two separate applications:
- Type A - Intended for assays in which a streptavidin-labeled detection reagent will be used.
- Type B - Optimised for assays in which the biotinylated protein is captured by streptavidin immobilized on a surface (ie plates, nitrocellulose, magnetic beads etc).

FAQs for Lightning-Link (R) Rapid Type A Biotin Antibody Labeling Kit
-
Q: Hi, I'm interested in buying your Lightning-Link Biotin labelling kit. I would like to couple biotin to an antibody, which would bind to an antigen in a sandwich assay format. Then streptavidin-coated nanoparticles would be used as the detection scheme. Which type is best for this purpose, type A or type B? Since Type A is for when Strep is used as a detection reagent, but Type B says its best for when Strep is immobilised to the suface of nanoparticles. In my case it is both.
A: Type B would be the preferred kit.

Q: Whats the difference between Lightning-Link (R) Rapid Type A and Type B for Biotin antibody labeling?
A: Type A - Intended for assays in which a streptavidin-labeled detection reagent will be used. Type B - Optimised for assays in which the biotinylated protein is captured by streptavidin immobilized on a surface (ie plates, nitrocellulose, magnetic beads etc).
