The advantages of using directly labeled conjugates ?
Posted: Tue 20 Jan 2015 15:37What are the advantages of using directly labeled conjugates compared to indirect staining with labeled secondary antibodies?
FAQ from biotium
Direct immunofluorescence staining eliminates the need for secondary antibody incubation and wash steps, and allows the use of multiple primary antibodies from the same species for multicolor detection, or staining of animal tissues with antibodies raised in the same species without secondary antibody cross-reactivity (e.g. mouse-on-mouse staining).
