VECTASHIELD with DAPI - VECTASHIELD® Mounting Medium is a unique, stable formula for preserving fluorescence. VECTASHIELD Mounting Medium with DAPI prevents rapid photobleaching of fluorescein, rhodamine, Texas Red®, and other fluorescent reagents such as Cy3, Cy5, Alexa Fluor® 488, Alexa Fluor® 594, and DyLight™ dyes.* Sections mounted in VECTASHIELD® Mounting Medium retain fluorescence during prolonged storage. VECTASHIELD D…

Each VECTASTAIN® ABC kit utilizes the same preformed Avidin: Biotinylated enzyme Complex (ABC) principle and all offer low backgrounds and an amplification of signal compared to conven-tional covalent conjugates. The high sensitivity reported for this technique likely resides in either the form or the number of active enzyme molecules associated with the complex and the rapid, irreversible interaction of the complex with bio…

The Quant*Tag™ Biotin Kit (BDK-2000) is designed to determine the amount of free biotin in solution or the number of biotins attached to nucleic acids, proteins, or other macromolecules. This kit can be used to determine accurately the labeling efficiency of biotin-labeled molecules.

Vector Laboratories’ affinity-purified antibodies are of unmatched quality. These antibodies are prepared using proprietary immunization schedules that produce high affinity antibodies. The antibodies are then purified by affinity chromatography, and cross-reactivities that are likely to interfere with specific labeling are removed by solid phase adsorption techniques.

Vector Laboratories' fluorescent secondary antibodies are unmatched in quality for immunological techniques. All antibodies are prepared using proprietary immunization schedules that produce high affinity antibodies.
