PE-conjugated anti-Drosophila primary antibodies are affinity-purified monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies directly labeled with phycoerythrin (PE), a highly fluorescent phycobiliprotein. Their exceptional brightness and direct detection format make them ideal for sensitive fluorescence-based applications while eliminating secondary antibody steps, reducing background, and simplifying multicolor experimental workflows.
Key Features
- High fluorescence intensity: PE provides outstanding signal brightness, enabling reliable detection of low-abundance Drosophila proteins.
- Direct detection: Eliminates secondary antibodies, reducing assay time and minimizing cross-reactivity.
- Optimized performance: Controlled dye-to-protein ratio preserves antigen-binding affinity while maximizing fluorescence.
- Broad target range: Available against developmental, neural, cytoskeletal, signaling, histone, and epitope-tag proteins.
Applications
PE-conjugated anti-Drosophila antibodies are extensively validated for flow cytometry (FACS), multicolor immunophenotyping, confocal and widefield fluorescence microscopy, bead-based multiplex assays, and high-resolution cell sorting. Their intense orange/red fluorescence enables accurate detection of rare cell populations and low-expression targets while ensuring excellent compatibility with complex multicolor experimental panels.
