Hi,
by keeping them at 4C and opening the tubes in the sterile hood and using sterile tips, we manage to keep them functional for a year or so.

Hi,

What’s your opinion about freezing fluorescently conjugated antibodies? I know for example that the Qdots are destroyed by freezing, but how about others?
