Lightning-Link (R) PE-Cy7 Antibody Labeling Kit

Lightning-Link antibody labeling kits enable the direct labeling of antibodies, proteins, peptides or other biomolecules for use in R&D applications, drug discovery and the development of diagnostic kits (See protocol for further information).

Our PE/Cy7 antibody labeling kit enables the direct conjugation of the PE/Cy7 tandem dye to any biomolecule with an available amine group. The researcher simply pipettes the antibody or other biomolecule into the vial of Lightning-Link label and incubates for 3 hours.

PE/Cy7 is a tandem conjugate. The PE has three maximal absorbance values of 498, 544 and 566nm with the optimal depending on the application. The PE functions as an energy donor for the Cy7. Energy is transferred from the PE to the Cy7 via energy resonance transfer. The Cy7 emits the energy received from the PE in the form of long wavelength light at 782nm.
