LDL probes

Purified human LDL (d=1.019-1.063), either native, acetylated, or oxidized, is reacted with a lipid stain, or a protein stain, for the production of the lipoprotein probes. The purified probes are ultrafiltered through a membrane, and packaged asceptically under nitrogen. The probes are provided in a solution with 154 mM NaCl and 0.34 uM EDTA, at pH 7.2. The protein concentration is 0.5 mg/mL. The purity of the probes is assessed by agarose gel electrophoresis.

DiI (3,3'-dioctadecylindocarbocyanine) is a fluorescent dye which permeates the lipid portion of the lipoprotein particle. These probes can be detected with a fluorescent microscope, fluorescent plate reader, or flow cytometer.

Biotin is a small molecule, covalently linked to the protein portion of the lipoprotein particle. A spacer group between the protein moiety of the lipoprotein and the biotin ensures its availability to aqueous solutions of avidin or streptavidin. Biotinylated materials are usually detected thru the secondary binding of an avidin or streptavidin conjugate.
