Gold nanoparticle core size: 50nm
Optical density: 3OD (conc. 1.05E+11 particles/ml)
Conjugated protein: Holo-Transferrin
Supplied in: 0.01M PBS (pH 7.4), 20% glycerol (v/v), 1% BSA
Applications
Transferrin gold conjugates are suitable for use in cell uptake studies and can be detected using light microscopy (requires silver enhancement), darkfield microscopy, and electron microscopy.
Advantages of Transferrin Gold Conjugates
- Readily taken up by cells
- Provides a permanent label
Storage/Stability
Store undiluted in storage buffer at 2-8oC. Stable for 4 months if stored as specified.
Storage of conjugate at working dilution may result in performance loss.
