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
Identification of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor recycling and its role in maintaining receptor density at the neuromuscular junction in vivo.
Authors:Bruneau E, Sutter D, Hume RI, Akaaboune M
Journal:J Neurosci
PubMed ID:16251443
'In the CNS, receptor recycling is critical for synaptic plasticity; however, the recycling of receptors has never been observed at peripheral synapses. Using a novel imaging technique, we show here that nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) recycle into the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. By sequentially labeling AChRs with biotin-bungarotoxin ... More
The Nef protein of human immunodeficiency virus is a broad-spectrum modulator of chemokine receptor cell surface levels that acts independently of classical motifs for receptor endocytosis and Galphai signaling.

'Chemokine receptors (CKRs) are important physiological mediators of immune defense, inflammatory responses, and angiogenesis, and they have also been implicated in a number of viral disease processes. Here, we report that the Nef protein of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reduces cell surface levels of eight different members of the CC- ... More
A far-red fluorescent contrast agent to image epidermal growth factor receptor expression.
'Recent developments in optical technologies have the potential to improve the speed and accuracy of screening and diagnosis of curable precancerous lesions and early cancer, thereby decreasing the costs of detection and management of epithelial malignancies. The development of molecular-specific contrast agents for markers of early neoplastic transformation could improve ... More
The blood contains multiple distinct progenitor populations with clonogenic B and T lineage potential.

The thymus is seeded by bone marrow-derived progenitors that circulate in the blood. Multiple cell types can be found in the thymus early after i.v. administration or in steady state, but most fail to satisfy the known characteristics of true T progenitors. Cells that do conform to classical definitions retain ... More
