Label your DNA or RNA probes and oligonucleotides using one-step direct methods, thiol-based indirect labeling, or specific 5' and 3' end tagging techniques.
Carbohydrate Labeling DNA / RNA Labeling
Confirm probe customization and label incorporation. For example, use the QuantTag Biotin Quantitation kit to determine the number of biotin molecules incorporated in each strand of nucleic acid.
Affinity Binding Matrices Biotin Quantitation
Optimize the probe concentration and buffer conditions to ensure effective annealing to complementary sequences.
Slide Preparation
Reduce or eliminate unwanted background (non-specific) staining on tissue sections and cell preparations using a blocking solution. Non-specific staining can result from endogenous enzyme or tissue elements, including endogenous enzyme activity, presence of Fc receptors, or interactions of detection reagents with tissue or cell proteins and other macromolecules. Choose a blocking solution based on the results of negative control sections.
Blocking Reagents
Use fluorescent or enzyme-conjugated reagents that meet your sensitivity requirements and visualization preferences.
