Product Information
anti-GFP VHH/ Nanobody conjugated to a fluorescent dye for IF/ microscopy.
Description | The GFP-Booster stabilizes, enhances, and reactivates the signal of GFP-fusion proteins. Due to its small size, the GFP-Booster enables higher image quality in epifluorescence, confocal, and super-resolution microscopy: • Considerably higher tissue penetration rates • Superior accessibility and labelling of epitopes in crowded cellular/organelle environments • Less than 2 nm epitope-label displacement minimizes linkage error • Monovalent VHHs do not cluster their epitopes • Validation: structure and function characterized • Consistent and reliable performance due to recombinant production |
Applications | IF, IHC, ICC |
