LYNX Rapid RPE-Cy5.5 Antibody Conjugation Kit® enables the rapid conjugation of a pre-prepared lyophilized mixture containing R-Phycoerythrin (RPE)-Cy5.5 label to an antibody or protein. Activation of proprietary reagents within the antibody-label solution results in directional covalent bonding of RPE-Cy5.5 to the antibody.

The LYNX Rapid Conjugation kit® can be used to label small quantities of antibody/protein at near neutral pH, allowing a high conjugation efficiency with 100% antibody recovery.

Reagents In The Kit
3 Vials of 10μg LYNX lyophilized RPE-Cy5.5 mix
1 Vial LYNX Modifier reagent
1 Vial LYNX Quencher reagent
Preparing The Antibody
The following buffer solutions are recommended for preparing the antibody:

10-50mM amine-free buffer (e.g HEPES, MES, MOPS and phosphate) pH range 6.5-8.5, although moderate concentrations of Tris buffer (<20mM) may be tolerated.

If possible, avoid buffers containing nucleophilic components such as primary amines and thiols (e.g. thiomersal/thimerosal) since they may react with LYNX chemicals. Azide (0.02-0.1%), EDTA, up to 50% Glycerol and common non-buffering salts and sugars have little or no effect on conjugation efficiency.

Due to the large size of the RPE-Cy5.5 label the quantity of RPE-tandem dye is in slight molar excess. Approximately 10ug of IgG will give a 1:1 molar ratio of antibody:RPE. For optimal results the antibody should be at a concentration of 1mg/ml, with a maximum volume of 10ul and a maximum antibody amount of 10ug. Antibody at a concentration of greater than 1mg/ml requires dilution. Antibody below 1mg/ml can still be used as long as the maximum volume is not exceeded. Using less than the recommended amount of antibody may result in unbound label, but this will be removed during subsequent application wash steps. Antibody below 0.5mg/ml should be concentrated before use with the kit.

Instructions For Use
LNK094PECY5.5
1. To the antibody sample add 1μl of the Modifier reagent for every 10μl of antibody and mix gently.

2. Pipette the mixed antibody-modifier sample directly onto the LYNX lyophilized mix and gently pipette up and down twice to resuspend.

3. Replace cap onto vial and incubate in the dark at room temperature (20-25oC) for 3 hours, or overnight if preferred.

4. After incubation, add 1μl of Quencher reagent for every 10μl of antibody used. Leave to stand for 30 minutes before use.
