The StreptaClick® Technology
- multiplex with biotinylated antibodies
The patented StreptaClick® technology provides monovalent binding of streptavidin to biotinylated antibodies. StreptaClick® is a modified form of tetrameric streptavidin with conserved high binding affinity for biotin. Its monovalent binding property prevents antibody aggregation, which allows antibody pre-labeling in solution and multiplexing. StreptaClick® can be linked to any biotinylated antibody in a 5-minute mixing reaction, in any volume and without washing steps. Our product portfolio includes StreptaClick® labelled with fluorochromes, the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP), oligonucleotides, and reactive groups for click chemistry.
SpectraSplit® 7 – Hepta-band optical filter sets for microscopes and scanners
Specific separation of 7 fluorescent colors in a multi-stained tissue section has never been easier. The patented SpectraSplit® 7 filter sets generate clean, sharp images without the need for spectral unmixing, making it suitable for any downstream application. Simply select among the most popular fluorochromes for each color channel and image without bleed-through.
SpectraSplit® 7 was initially developed in 2014. Over the years the hepta-band filter sets have been fine-tuned based on customer feedback to not only fit a wide range of fluorochromes, but also different staining techniques, including Tyramide Signal Amplification and DNA-based multiplexing. SpectraSplit® 7 is available in scanners from multiple manufacturers including Evident (VS200), TissueGnostics (TissueFAXS CHROMA), and Nikon (Ti2).
SpectraSplit® 7 is compatible with light sources from CoolLED (pE-800 SB), Lumencor (SPECTRA X light engine) and Excelitas (NOVEM-S).
Heat-free multiplex TSA enabled by StreptaClick® HRP and Kromnigon's unique HRP block buffer
Kromnigon’s StreptaClick® HRP multiplex IHC kits addresses the most common limitations of traditional multiplex tyramide signal amplification by removing the need for secondary antibodies and eliminating heat-based antibody stripping. HRP is directly linked to the primary antibody using StreptaClick®, and after each staining cycle the enzyme is specifically inactivated with a proprietary HRP blocking buffer before the next round begins.
No heat is used to strip off antibodies between staining cycles, preserving tissue structure and epitope integrity. This allows the simultaneous analysis of multiple protein biomarkers in frozen and FFPE samples, and reduces the time to optimize antibody panels considerably.
Introducing StreptaClick® Precision
A novel version of StreptaClick® developed for site-specific conjugation via click chemistry and enhanced monovalent binding to biotinylated proteins.
StreptaClick® Precision has a unique design with maximum separation of the single reactive site for conjugation (azide/DBCO) and the site for biotin binding. This makes StreptaClick® Precision ideal for attachment of bulky molecules such as DNA oligos and LNPs.
StreptaClick® Precision is the ultimate choice for method development requiring both high precision and flexibility. Possible applications include DNA origami, custom bead or LNP coating, antigen labeling, and highly multiplexed immunoassays.
Perfect for oligonucleotides and lipid nanoparticles
