Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Streptavidin Coated Plates

Thermo Scientific Pierce Streptavidin Coated Plates are pre-blocked and ready-to-use polystyrene plates for binding biotinylated antibodies or probes for ELISA and other target-specific assays.

Features of Streptavidin Coated Plates include:
• Approximate binding capacity is ∼5 pmol biotin/well
• Easy and gentle immobilization of biotin-containing conjugates
• Low nonspecific binding
• No denaturing of the protein component of a conjugate upon binding
• Ideal for binding small biotinylated hydrophilic molecules (e.g., peptides) that typically exhibit poor binding to polystyrene
• Pre-blocked with your choice of Blocker BSA or SuperBlock Blocking Buffer

Biotin-binding plates are ideal for applications when direct adsorption to polystyrene denatures antibodies or the target molecule. Streptavidin is the most popular and widely available biotin-binding protein for research methods. Streptavidin has an isoelectric point of 5 to 6, resulting in low nonspecific interactions.
