Product Summary for Lightning-Link (R) PerCP-Cy5.5 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 PerCP/Cy5.5 antibody labeling kit enables the direct conjugation of the PerCP/Cy5.5 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.

PerCP/Cy5.5 is a tandem label. The PerCP excited at 484nm and functions as an energy donor for the Cy5.5. Energy is transferred from the PerCP to the Cy5.5 via energy resonance transfer. The Cy5.5 emits the energy received from the PerCP in the form of long wavelength light at 692nm.

Application Notes

PerCP/Cy5.5 is a tandem conjugate. In our Lightning-Link PerCP/Cy5.5 the best result is obtained when the tandem is excited at 488nm, wavelength at which the PerCP has its maximum absorption. The excited PerCP functions as an energy donor, where the energy is transferred via FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) to the Cy5.5. The Cy5.5 emits then the energy received from the PE in the form of long wavelength light at 700nm. Use in FLOW cytometry reported in scientific literature ( PMID 26483406). This kit can be used to label up to 1 mg of antibody, and is supplied in one vial.

Background: Lightning-Link (R) PerCP-Cy5.5

Lightning-Link® is an innovative technology that enables direct labeling of proteins, peptides or other biomolecules for use in R&D applications, drug discovery and the development of diagnostic kits.

The easy-to-use, one step procedure allows researchers to covalently label biomolecules with only 30 seconds hands on time. The researcher simply pipettes the biomolecule into a vial of lyophilized mixture containing the label of interest and incubates. Despite its apparent simplicity, the Lightning-Link® process is sophisticated and generates conjugates with performance characteristics identical to, or better than, those prepared with laborious multistep conjugation procedures.

The Lightning-Link® range currently consists of 50+ kits including enzymes, biotin, streptavidin and fluorochromes covering the spectrum from UV to far infrared. Lightning-Link® conjugates are used in a large number of scientific applications including Western Blotting, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, ELISA and FRET.

The technology is fully scalable (ug to grams) ensuring quality and consistency without any deterioration in the performance of the conjugate. As there are no separation or desalting steps, antibody recovery is 100%. Furthermore, the bond between the label and biomolecule is covalent, therefore the conjugate is extremely stable.
