Description
Product details:
Biotin Gold Conjugate (40nm, 10 OD) (ab186922) is a unique coated nanoparticle that has an avidly bound protective surface coat which can withstand the most extreme conditions (e.g. 2.5M NaOH at 70°C for ~2 hours).
By covalently attaching biotin ligand to the surface coat the resulting Gold-Biotin nanoparticles inherit the stability attributes of the core nanoparticle; moreover the biotin ligand cannot desorb, which is a major problem with all competing products in which a biotin analogue is directly attached to the metal. Biotin is attached to Gold via an extended linker to facilitate high affinity molecular interactions with avidin and streptavidin.
A common application for Gold Biotin is to be used as a detector in Lateral Flow Assays (LFAs).
Notes:
This product is manufactured by Expedeon, an Abcam company. It was previously called 40nm InnovaCoat® GOLD (10 OD) Biotin Conjugate. Expedeon product code 240-0200 is the same as the 200 μL size of this product and code 240-1000 is the same as the 1 mL size.
