I am planning to use a fluorescent streptavidin labeled conjugate. What are the storage conditions and shelf life for the lyophilized powder and reconstituted solution?
In the lyophilized powder form, the fluorescent streptavidin labeled conjugate is stable for six months when stored at -20 degrees C, desiccated, and protected from light. The reconstituted solution is stable for approximately six months when stored at 4 degrees C, protected from light, with the addition of sodium azide to a final concentration of 5 mM or thimerosal to 0.2 mM. For longer storage, we recommend dividing the solution into aliquots and freezing at -20 degrees C, protected from light. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the solution.
I am planning to use a fluorescent streptavidin labeled conjugate. How should I prepare the working solution of the conjugate?
The fluorescent streptavidin labeled conjugate solution can be made by dissolving the powder in 0.5-1.0 mL of PBS or other suitable buffer. For details, please refer to page 4 of the "Streptavidin and Fluorescent Conjugates of Streptavidin" manual (https://assets.fishersci.com/TFS-Assets/LSG/manuals/mp00888.pdf).

Abstract
Development of homogeneous binding assays based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer between quantum dots and Alexa Fluor fluorophores.
Authors:Nikiforov TT, Beechem JM
Journal:Anal Biochem
PubMed ID:16860286
'We studied the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between quantum dots emitting at 565, 605, and 655 nm as energy donors and Alexa Fluor fluorophores with absorbance maxima at 594, 633, 647, and 680 nm as energy acceptors. As a first step, we prepared covalent conjugates between all three types ... More
Flow-cytometric isolation of human antibodies from a nonimmune Saccharomyces cerevisiae surface display library.
'A nonimmune library of 10(9) human antibody scFv fragments has been cloned and expressed on the surface of yeast, and nanomolar-affinity scFvs routinely obtained by magnetic bead screening and flow-cytometric sorting. The yeast library can be amplified 10(10)-fold without measurable loss of clonal diversity, allowing its effectively indefinite expansion. The ... More
FRET or no FRET: a quantitative comparison.
Authors:Berney C, Danuser G
Journal:Biophys J
PubMed ID:12770904
'Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a technique used to measure the interaction between two molecules labeled with two different fluorophores (the donor and the acceptor) by the transfer of energy from the excited donor to the acceptor. In biological applications, this technique has become popular to qualitatively map protein-protein ... More
Galectin-1, -2, and -3 exhibit differential recognition of sialylated glycans and blood group antigens.
Authors:Stowell SR, Arthur CM, Mehta P, Slanina KA, Blixt O, Leffler H, Smith DF, Cummings RD,

Human galectins have functionally divergent roles, although most of the members of the galectin family bind weakly to the simple disaccharide lactose (Galbeta1-4Glc). To assess the specificity of galectin-glycan interactions in more detail, we explored the binding of several important galectins (Gal-1, Gal-2, and Gal-3) using a dose-response approach toward ...

Normal telomere length and chromosomal end capping in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-deficient mice and primary cells despite increased chromosomal instability.
Authors:Samper E, Goytisolo FA, Ménissier-de Murcia J, González-Suárez E, Cigudosa JC, de Murcia G, Blasco MA
Journal:J Cell Biol
PubMed ID:11448989
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1, a detector of single-strand breaks, plays a key role in the cellular response to DNA damage. PARP-1-deficient mice are hypersensitive to genotoxic agents and display genomic instability due to a DNA repair defect in the base excision repair pathway. A previous report suggested that PARP-1-deficient mice also ... More
