New Zenon Alexa Fluor Plus Labeling Reagents are superior in three ways: improved bioconjugation for brighter signal, redesigned protein for robust screening regardless of IgG isotype, and new, more sensitive fluorophores.
'PURPOSE: Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are an important and growing class of cancer therapeutics, but pharmacokinetic analyses have in many cases been constrained by the lack of standard and robust pharmacologic assays. The goal of this project was to develop a general method for the production of immunoassays that can measure ... More

Small, engineered antibody fragments such as diabodies (50 kDa noncovalent dimers of single-chain Fv fragments) are useful alternatives to their larger antibody counterparts. However, due to their size, they are more susceptible to disruption of their antigen binding sites when modified using random conjugation techniques. Previous work has demonstrated the ... More
