HRP-conjugated anti-bovine primary antibodies integrate enzymatic signal amplification with high specificity toward bovine antigens. By coupling horseradish peroxidase (HRP) to antibodies, these reagents enable sensitive and versatile detection across multiple immunoassays.
Detection Principle
HRP catalyzes the oxidation of substrates in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, generating detectable signals. Chemiluminescent substrates emit light for high-sensitivity applications, while colorimetric substrates form stable precipitates suitable for visualization in microscopy-based techniques.
Antibody Properties
- Typically conjugated with 2–4 HRP molecules per antibody.
- Preserve antigen-binding affinity after conjugation.
- Cross-adsorbed to ensure high species specificity.
Major Applications
- Western blotting: enables protein detection at picogram levels.
- ELISA: supports quantitative analysis of bovine samples.
- Immunohistochemistry: allows antigen localization in tissues.
- Dot blot: provides rapid qualitative screening.
