Streptavidin Coated Polystyrene Microspheres - 15.00µm

Typical Properties
Catalog	ACCM0424
Coating	Streptavidin (SA)
Diameter	15.00 µm
Material	Polymer
Packaging	Streptavidin coated polystyrene microspheres are typically provided as a 1% solids suspension (w/v) in de-ionized water, containing surfactants and sodium azide for stabilization.
Particle Concentration	1% solids (10 mg/mL)
Shipping	RT
Specification Range	14.50-15.50 µm
Storage Conditions	This product should be stored at 2-8 °C. Freezing, drying, or centrifuging particles can lead to irreversible aggregation and a subsequent loss of binding activity. To prevent photobleaching, it is essential to store fluorescent microspheres in their opaque containers, which provide adequate protection against light exposure.

Overview

Description

Streptavidin coated polystyrene microspheres are functionalized microspheres made by immobilizing streptavidin on the surface of polystyrene microspheres. Streptavidin is a highly specific and high affinity biomolecule that interacts strongly with biotin. As a result, these microspheres are widely used in biological and biochemical research.

Application

Bioassays, immunoassays and nucleic acid detection.
