All assays should be optimized by the user. Recommended dilutions are listed below: ELISA:1:8,000 - 1:32,000 WB: 1:500 - 1:2,500 IHC: 1:200 - 1:1,000
Purification
Biotin Glucose Oxidase Conjugated was prepared from chromatographically purified biotin.
Biotin is a small biomolecule important for many cellular processes. Most importantly for biotechnology applications, Biotin is ammenable to conjugation to proteins for use in biochemical assays. Biotin has a very strong affinity for avidin and streptavidin; an attraction that is the strongest and most stable non-covalent interaction known. Glucose oxidase is an enzyme that drives the oxidation of glucose into hydrogen peroxide and D-glucono-d-lactone. This activity is utilized in biotechnology through colormetric detection assays that are sensitive to the amount of hydrogen peroxide produced. Biotin Glucose Oxidase Conjugated is ideal for investigators involved in Cancer, Cell Signaling, Neuroscience, and Cell Biology research.
