For instance, the use of secondary antibodies: • Requires a series of incubations and wash steps that are both tedious and time consuming. It is amazing how many times people state how much they hate those wash steps! • Can often be a source of non-specific staining within experiments which make data interpretation difficult or even impossible. • Multi-colour analysis often results in cross species re-activity. Secondary antibodies are generally used either because there are no directly labeled primary antibodies or to increase sensitivity. In this seminar, we will review: • How labeling of your own antibodies overcomes the need for secondary antibodies. • How easy it really is to label an antibody using Innova's 30 seconds hands-on antibody labeling kits and design your own unique research tools. • Application data such as flow cytometry and western blotting generated using directly labeled antibodies • And question the hypothesis of secondary vs. primary labeled antibodies.
