- Unlike Zenon, Mix-n-Stain™ labeling covalently attaches the dye to the antibody, eliminating dye transfer or diffusion between antibodies during multi-color staining.
- Mix-n-Stain™ conjugates are stable for at least 6 months in storage buffer, whereas Zenon complexes must be used within 30 minutes.
- Mix-n-Stain™ conjugates are less bulky because the dyes are directly linked to the antibody, unlike Zenon conjugates which use antibody fragments.
- No post-staining fixation is required with Mix-n-Stain™.
- Unlike Zenon, Mix-n-Stain labeling is not species-specific.
What are the advantages of Mix-n-Stain™ kits over Invitrogen’s Zenon® antibody labeling kits?
