Applications:

Streptavidin NV FND comprises a biotin-binding protein (streptavidin) covalently attached to a fluorescent label (Nitrogen Vacancy Fluorescent Nanodiamond, or NV FND) via a PEG linker. Streptavidin has a very high binding affinity for biotin, and a conjugate of streptavidin is commonly used together with a conjugate of biotin for specific detection of a variety of proteins, protein motifs, nucleic acids, and other molecules (for example, a biotinylated primary antibody bound to a protein target can be detected with a fluorescently labeled streptavidin). Strategies similar to this are used in many detection protocols including western blots, flow cytometry, imaging and microscopy, and microplate assays, and are also used in purification workflows to achieve targeted fractionation. Cymaris NV FND conjugates are provided as 1 mg/ml solutions.
