Product overview
169Tm Metal Conjugation Kit - Lightning-Link® (ab269848) provides an easy-to-use, one step procedure that allows researchers to label proteins, peptides and other biomolecules containing primary amines with 169Tm with only 30 seconds hands-on time; furthermore conjugates are ready to use in less than twenty minutes.
This product is manufactured by Expedeon, an Abcam company. Expedeon product code M169-0010 was previously called Lightning-Link 169Tm, 1 x 10ug and is the same as the 10 µg size of this product. Expedeon product code M169-0100 was previously called Lightning-Link 169Tm, 1 x 100ug and is the same as the 100 µg size.
The antibody to be labeled should be purified, in an appropriate buffer for conjugation and at a suitable concentration.
Learn about buffer compatibility below; for incompatible buffers and low antibody concentrations, use our rapid antibody purification and concentration kits. Use the FAQ to learn more about the technology, or about conjugating other proteins and peptides to 169Tm.

Notes
Buffer Requirements for Conjugation
Buffer should be pH 6.5-8.5.
Compatible buffer constituents
If a concentration is shown, then the constituent should be no more than the concentration shown. If several constituents are close to the limit of acceptable concentration, then this can inhibit conjugation.50mM / 0.6% Tris1 0.1% BSA2 50% glycerol 0.1% sodium azide PBS Potassium phosphate Sodium chloride HEPES Sucrose Sodium citrate EDTA Trehalose 1 Tris buffered saline is almost always ≤ 50 mM / 0.6%
2 BSA can also interfere with the use of the conjugated antibody in tissue staining.Incompatible buffer constituents
Thiomerosal Proclin Glycine Arginine Glutathione DTT If a constituent of the buffer containing your antibody or protein is not listed above, please check the FAQ or contact us.
Only purified antibodies are suitable for use, ie. where other proteins, peptides, or amino acids are not present: antibodies in ascites fluid, serum or hybridoma culture media are incompatible.

Gel Image Showing Lightning-Link® Metal Labeling Kit Antibody Labeling Efficiency.
Goat Anti-Rabbit was labeled with a selection of Lightning-Link® metal labels at 10 µg single reaction vials. 2 μg conjugates per well were run on a 4-12% Bis-Tris gel, under non-reducing conditions for 20 minutes at 50V and 1 hour at 120V in 1x MOPS. The gel was stained with InstantBlue™ for 1 hour on the gel rocker. The gel showed no free antibody post conjugation for all conjugates except when the reaction was quenched at t=0, where no conjugation was observed.
