Application: ExtrAvidin(R)-Cy3(TM) is suitable for the following applications: . Immunohistochemistry (formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections) at a dilution of 1:100. Immunocytochemistry.. Used for labeling.
Biochem/physiol Actions: Avidin is a tetrameric or dimeric biotin-binding protein produced in the oviducts of birds, reptiles and amphibians and deposited in the whites of their eggs. It consists of four high affinity binding sites for biotin. ExtrAvidin(R) is prepared from egg white avidin. It is a modified form of affinity purified avidin and binds biotin with high specific activity of avidin with the low background staining of streptavidin, a biotin binding protein produced by the bacteria Streptomyces avidinii. ExtrAvidin(R) is covalently conjugated to Cy3 dye and is used for various techniques.
